Challenge.

With several manufacturers within China having already developed an autonomous rapid transport platform, CRC Changchun was looking to add this product to their already diverse portfolio.

CRC Changchun invited Fordyno to develop conceptual designs in line with their vision. As this was a new product within their expansive portfolio Fordyno was challenged to consider how to instil the essence of CRC Changchun’s recognisable identity.

Approach

After evaluating the current systems in development within China Fordyno developed several unique identities compatible to the CRC Changchun brand. The design challenge was to create a look that sits between a tram and a more automotive identity.

Key technologies were integrated in the interior for passenger convenience
