2008 Peugeot RD
by Carlos Arturo Torres Tovar.
The 5th Peugeot Design Competition closed on October 2nd, 2008 with the opening of the Paris Motor Show.
This edition, whose theme was "Imagine the Peugeot of the future World Megalopolis", met with resounding success, with over 2,500 projects submitted and participants of 95 different nationalities.
The prize winning project.
Peugeot RD by 25 years old Colombian Carlos Arturo Torres Tovar.
The Peugeot RD concept, which functions mainly through an ingenious articulation process, has impeccable road-holding properties, as well as the ability to thread its way easily through urban traffic.
Fitted with an environmentally-friendly electric engine, this single-seater concept car has a driving position that gives a new feeling of freedom with its panoramic view, vocal driving assistance and a head-up display system that gives all the information needed for safe journeys.
This concept combines the sensations of a 3-wheel scooter with the driving pleasure of a saloon, while retaining the functionalities vital to the combination of these two transport modes… with the addition of silence.
Accessible, tough, and extremely simple, the Peugeot RD concept is perfectly adapted to the environment of the future megalopolis with complex mobility constraints.
