The VW RESeT is named after its goal: to be your perfect place to reset from the daily grind! With RESeT, driving isn’t a drag, rather, it’s a moving sanctuary where you can reflect on the day and how environmentally friendly you’re being! The autonomous convertible harnesses solar and wind energy to move and even utilizes a large built-in sail. All-in-all, it’s very sailboat like in both driving experience and interior cabin aesthetics. With a unique frictionless, Maglev-style wheel system and enhanced aerodynamics mean little energy is required to put the vehicle in motion and keep it in motion!

The car that can save VW

If you want to challenge reality, challenge it like a Transportation Designer. Most designers slave away trying to make their products realistic, but with Transportation Designers, sky’s the limit. Conceptual vehicle design is, to be honest, a huge field with more than capable designers contributing towards creating vehicles that go beyond the industry’s technological capabilities; and that’s a good thing. The Reset convertible defies possibilities by creating a marvel of eco-friendly automation. The car is built as a 4 seater without a B pillar. Glass dominates the outer design, and is only outdone by the massive solar panel packed away in the car’s interiors. Designed to open out like a futuristic sail, the car can harness solar energy to give it the juice it needs to propel you well into the future! Oh, and the wheels are hub-less, because hey, why not!
