The Chico is a conceptual vehicle designed to explore the new age of hover driving and moving from place to place without the need for wheels. The vehicle is designed as a sleek pod with curved shape, minimalistic aesthetic and space enough for two to sit. Rather than rely on roads located on land for transportation, the Chico floats through the sky eliminating traffic build-up and increased emissions.
The Chico offers a futuristic idea of what cars can look like in the years to come when road driving shifts to becoming an air experience. The pod is sleek, cylindric and slender in shape with room for two people to sit comfortably while maintaining an aerodynamic design.
