The conceptual Honda Kei is a futuristic vehicle designed by Mostafa Bonakdar that offers a viewpoint into what urban commuting could look like in the city of tomorrow.
The vehicle is imagined for the future of urban transportation, which would be focused on autonomous driving and thus require less space inside for control components. This allows the passengers to enjoy expansive views of the exterior environment thanks to the glass dome section that covers the front 180-degrees of the vehicle.
The conceptual Honda Kei maintains a somewhat boxy aesthetic that would have it looking like a truly futuristic ride on the road as it bustles on busy streets to get passengers to the office or a social gathering.
