With dimensions lower than the U.K.’s own Renault Twizy, this 2-meter-long vehicle has the capacity of two people, is 80cm in width, and is 100% electric. Its automated transportation programming will allow its passengers to enjoy a ride throughout the capital city without having to move a foot. However, in the promotion of healthy habits, the Tempo can also be assisted with pedaling. This will offer its passengers the unique experience to exercise as they compete with other users as a fitness incentive to win points.
FUTURE IMPLICATIONS
The Tempo would be equipped with a head-up display interface which combines voice commands with holographic projection in order to provide an optimum driving experience. With its internal system connected to the NAVI, users of the Tempo would be able to acquire additional services in extension to their driving. In the future, this type of driving experience will be commonplace for all vehicles. Each passenger will have various choices of transportation, from automated to manual – and if the Tempo’s encouragement for healthy habits gains popularity, even the manual option will have options in itself in how a passenger would like to drive their vehicle.
