[Peugeot](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3dprinted-car-accessories) Moodif has offisically solved the age-old problem of teeny-tiny parking spaces.

Peugeot Moodif's design boasts a rubber-clad shaft that resembles an accordion for easy adjust-ability. This accordion-like shaft is used for [expanding and detracting the vehicle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pininfarina-foldable-trailer), helping to guide the driver into [tight parking spaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/numa-concept). The vehicle approaches curvy roads in a snakelike manner, adding to safety and function. Check this revolutionary hybrid ride out in the gallery.
