Next Generation Car (NGC) - Lightweight vehicle concepts



Research is being carried out into developing future lightweight vehicle concepts for use in urban and interurban environments.

 

Leichtbaufahrzeugkonzept
Design study

 

NGC Safe Light Regional Vehicle (SLRV)

The NGC SLRV is a cost-effective, very light and safe vehicle with a length of about 4,5 m. Designed as two-seater and meeting all safety standards of the L7E class is it the ideal “First Car” or “Beginner Car” for young drivers.

 

NGC Urban Modular Vehicle (UMV)

The NGC UMV is an universal-purpose and compact vehicle for urban areas. It is designed as „Small Family Car“ or „Craftsman and Supply Vehicle” – a mini- or compact class four-seater or transporter with a length of 3,6 m.

 

NGC Interurban Vehicle (IUV)

The NGC IUV is designed as comfortable vehicle for inter-urban areas or inter-regional and long distance “Travel Car“ for families. It is supposed to be a middle and upper-class five-seater with a length of about 4,5 m.
