The City Car is a stackable, sharable, electric two-passenger urban vehicle. The one-way sharable user model is designed to be used in dense urban areas. Vehicle Stacks will be placed throughout the city to create an urban transportation network that takes advantage of existing transportation infrastructures such as subway, commuter and bus lines. By placing stacks in urban spaces and key points of convergence, the vehicle allows the citizens of the city the flexibility to combine mass transit effectively with individualized mobility. The stack receives incoming vehicles and electrically charges them. Similar to luggage carts at the airport, users simply take the first fully charged vehicle at the front of the stack. The City Car is not a replacement for personal vehicles, taxis, buses, or trucks; it is a new vehicle type that promotes a socially responsible and more effective means of urban mobility.
