Peugeot RD megalopolis concept at Shanghai

At the Beijing motor show last year, Peugeot presented a competition for car designers, to create a Peugeot prototype adapted to megalopolis cities.
With more than 2,500 entries, the winner of this extraordinary competition was Carlos Arturo Torres Tovar, 27 years old, from Colombia.

Using Tovar’s design as a base, Peugeot has since produced a model of the vehicle designed, in the same scale planned for the transport.

Looking like an offroad trike, the vehicle would have one driver, three wheels, and the possibility of bending itself around corners, like a motorcycle or a scooter, but with the safety of a car.

The only engine foreseen for such a model, given the brief of the competition, is an electric engine.
The concept, called RD, is currently on show at this year’s Shanghai Motor Show.
