But rather than looking to current car designers for their ideas about the future, the site took a more proactive approach, enlisting a group of kids to draw up their ideas for how cars might look one day — after all, it's kids like them who'll actually be responsible for cars down the road. Though of course the campaign is somewhat facetious, GoCompare took the [children's designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/little-artists-design-contest) seriously. The company used a [professional illustrator](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ecollection) to create slick images of each of the designs, and the page featuring the campaign includes side-by-side comparisons of the children's original drawings (with notes about functionality) and the artist renderings. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 50% | Activity: 57% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Alpha - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Future Car Design:** Exploring kid-designed car concepts opens up opportunities to rethink and innovate the future of car design. - **Crowdsourced Innovation:** Involving kids in the design process highlights the potential of crowdsourcing and leveraging diverse perspectives for innovative ideas. - **Youth-centric Design:** Taking inspiration from children's ideas encourages a more youth-centric approach to product design in various industries. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Automotive:** The automotive industry can embrace the kid-designed car concepts to inspire fresh and unconventional ideas for future car models. - **Education:** Integrating design thinking activities for children in educational curriculums can foster creativity and problem-solving skills. - **Marketing and Advertising:** Brands can tap into the creativity of children to develop engaging and child-friendly marketing campaigns that resonate with younger audiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Child-Centric Concept Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/childcentric-compact-luxury-suv.md) - [Technical Education Car Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gocar.md) - [Sustainable EV Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/little-tikes-cozy-coupe.md) - [Child-Centric Electric Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kids-cars.md) - [Child Mobility Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selfdriving-ev.md) - [Childhood-Inspired Car Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drive-pilot-story.md) - [Reality-Bending Car Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cargurus-latest-ad.md) - [Semi-Transparent Concept Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/renault-twingo-concept.md) - [Kid-Designed Sculptural Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/galerie-philia.md)
