Question

what is cap in mind while designing all vehicles?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Earlier the cars were only a means of transportation. They originated from horse driven carriages and were designed on similar lines. Now they are a lot more than that. Aesthetics, ergonomics, comfort, safety and performance features all play a crucial role in making a car model hit or flop in the market. There are sports cars meant for racing, luxury cars to flaunt wealth, large wagons/pickup trucks for moving goods, SUVs/off-road vehicles to go on beats in jungle, or a simple sedan/hatch-back for travelling around.

First thing to be considered while designing a car is, to whose needs you are catering to. Youngsters prefer a sporty looking car with good performance, middle-aged persons go for a car with decent looks/good fuel efficiency preferably a mid-range sedan, similarly those whose job involves lot of moving heavy goods prefer pickup trucks. Hence deciding on which segment of car is to be designed is important. Basically it should serve their purpose.

Secondly it's all about relating the looks of the car to one's personality. The difference in build, color, size, form and feature all appeal to different population. Shiny trims show luxury and elegance, while ruggedness reflect aggressive quality, similarly smooth curves and certain selective colors appeal to feminine gender, in some cases the eco-friendliness of the car excites the environment conscious crowd.

Answer 2

I believe I am qualified to answer these questions. I’ve worked in many Design Studios including those of McLaren, Jaguar, Land Rover, Bentley, etc. I’ve worked in everything from initial design all the way to manufacturing. So now that we’ve settled that.

One key thing to remember is from the day the design director first puts his idea on paper to the day Job 1 or first customer car is produced it will take 5 - 10 years. Honestly speaking, I’ve never worked on any project that has run on the projected time plan. Honestly never. Doesn't matter how many cars, if it’s 100 McLarens or 30,000 Land Rovers. No project I’ve worked on ever ran as per the plan. It was always delayed.

When a car is designed, it’s designed by designers. They are artists - pure artists, not engineers. Then the designs move to studio engineers who then make everything feasible and a reality. So it’s always a battle between designers and engineers. Engineers want reality and designers want, well a beautiful car. They seldom care about budget and other marketing constraints.
