Trends in Vehicle Design: Key Takeaways, Global, 2015
Understanding regional preferences based on vehicle usage or other factors including driver age and fuel prices will be key to success with respect to vehicle body size and style.
While Asian drivers prefer compact cars (hatchbacks, sedans, and crossover utility vehicles [CUVs]), they also demand a feel of luxury in their vehicles.
- North America is dominated by large vehicles (sport utility vehicles [SUVs], pickups, and vans), largely due to lower fuel prices.
- European and Middle Eastern countries prefer near-premium to premium sedans to emulate high status.
The definition of luxury is changing, especially among Generations X and Y. They look for:
- A high level of customizability
- Vehicle individuality
Rapid prototyping along with 3-D printing will be a key strategy to meet these requirements.
Autonomous vehicles and vehicles aimed at mobility will completely reshape based on considerations such as regional usage, parking, powertrain, and materials used.
