4 Wheel Drive/SUVs: Complex 4 Wheeler Automobile Design Model, wheel brakes, right hand drive vehicles


Question
Dear Carl

This is regarding a Complex 4 Wheeler Automobile Design Model VIZ
Cars, Jeeps, Lorries, Bus, Tempo etc.

1. Mirrored Structure - i.e. Engine on both sides.
The Driver can sit either on front or rear side (this was the place for storage) to drive the vehicle.  

2. Diagonally Steering Wheel, Brakes, Clutches, Gears positions for both Left hand and right hand drive vehicles.


Limitations
-----------

1. Storage Information - where to keep the Storage ?. Top of the Vehicle Roof and place where one opens the car door similar to aeroplane cargo place remains the only option ?

2. Cost Factor may go up.

3. The Design could be a complex one ?

Do you feel if this design model is manufactured there could be any benefits to the consumer ?

Awaiting your views and thoughts,

Thanks & Regards,

Answer
Prashant,

Wow.  I definitely would pursue this idea.  Some areas of use could be in major construction, delivery vehicles that would need to operate in small areas that are hard to maneuver in, military use, airports, etc.

I would work on some designs and submit them to a few major companies, and see if there is a specific interest for such a specialized vehicle.

Hope it works out for you,

Carl
