Patent-Inspired Tech Car Concepts

This Apple Car Concept by Vanarama Brings Patent Filings to Life

— November 15, 2021 — Autos
This Apple Car concept has been designed by Vanarama as a rendering of what we could see being created by the Cupertino-based technology brand in the coming years as it continues to develop its own electric vehicle.

The vehicle concept is inspired by patents filed by the technology company including a pillarless design with a glass roof, while also featuring a series of adaptive doors. The interior cabin is equipped with a large touchscreen display that extends right across the dashboard to provide easy access to all essential instruments and comfort features.

The Apple Car concept incorporates subtle nods to the tech brand's existing products, while also featuring an overall design that draws a bit of inspiration from the Tesla Model 3 and the Cybertruck.
Trend Themes
1. Adaptive-door Electric Cars - Leading car manufacturers should create electric car models with adaptive doors inspired by patented tech designs to attract more tech-savvy car buyers.
2. Pillarless Electric Cars - Car manufacturers should design pillarless electric car models as a selling point by incorporating patented designs for a sleeker look and improved visibility.
3. Large Touchscreen Displays in Vehicles - Automakers should integrate large touchscreen displays in vehicle dashboards inspired by patented tech designs for better accessibility to essential instruments and comfort features.
Industry Implications
1. Automotive - Leading automakers can leverage patented tech designs to create disruptive EV models with adaptive doors, pillarless bodies, and large touchscreen displays that appeal to tech-savvy car buyers.
2. Consumer Electronics - Consumer electronics companies can explore opportunities to develop large touchscreen displays and other car-related technologies based on patented tech designs to expand their product portfolio beyond traditional devices.
3. Innovation Consulting - Innovation consulting firms can work with car manufacturers and tech companies to identify and integrate patented tech designs into electric car models for a competitive edge in the crowded EV market.
