The conceptual Mercedes Redsun has been designed by Wayne Jung as a transportation solution that plays up the brand's iconic logo to help integrate it more fully into the design process. The vehicle expands the brand's logo into an oversized one that functions as the headlight to keep drivers focused on the road ahead, while the taillight also has the same shape for a sense of uniformity. The top section of the sleek sports car is finished with a red-tinted solar paneling that will capture energy from the sun to power the vehicle's internal battery.
The conceptual Mercedes Redsun is rounded off with strategically placed air vents to keep the aforementioned solar panels cool at all times when driving to prevent avoidable overheating.
