Vision
At Kor Ecologic, when we design a product, we try to make the design fit our idea of the way things should be.
The Urbee design team had a vision. That vision was written out and posted on the walls of our shop. It is the fundamental design ideals we followed in working on the Urbee Car Project.
- Use the least amount of energy possible for every kilometre traveled.
- Cause as little pollution as possible during manufacturing, operation and recycling of the car.
- Use materials available as close as possible to where the car is built.
- Use materials that can be recycled again and again.
- Use parts and materials that last as long as possible.
- Be simple to understand, build, and repair.
- Be as safe as possible to drive.
- Meet the standards and regulations applicable to traditional cars.
- Be buildable in small quantities so we don't have to wait for it to become more widely accepted before we can begin manufacturing it for the public.
- Be mass-producable so it can be built more economically once it becomes more widely accepted.
- Be affordable.
- Be visually appealing.
