truth.
same thing about gen Z.
As a representative of said generation i have to say: give me the Toyota MeWe - or update the honda element with a new, more efficient engine. small displacement diesel for instance. or is it just designer-me talking? i don’t know.
After spending 2 months in italy i also noticed the microcars with motorcycleengines all arround - with kids in their teens driving them. probably because they offer an individual mobility solution that is cheap enough to leave the monthly contract payment for the iphone within realisable scope.
anyway - difficult development. that’s why for me the transportation sector is still the most interesting branch of design - a lot of buddies at uni, initially keen on designing cars all day, have lost their interest in it during the years.
even more exciting times right now, i guess.
