CUTE CASE
2009 Science & Future

About the design

Human & Environment
We could not endure the pollution caused by Fossil fuels vehicle anymore. So, we invent EV. However, there are still some problems with EV. The most significant one is the endurance miles. In order to relieve this problem, the design of Cute-Case has two special features. Firstly, it is small and light weighty. Secondly, it could recharge on bus or subway cab.

Human & Society
As the populations in big cities are increasing rapidly, finding a parking place becomes more and more difficult. If, one day in the future, we do not need a parking place. Yes, we have Cute-Case, the tiny EV, which could be parked in our office.

Public or private transportation, which one is the trend? As public transportation gains ascendancy over private vehicles in the aspect of environmental protection, the government pays more attention on the development of public transportation. However, we still need a private vehicle on our way from bus station to our destinations.

Human & Technique
We complain about traffic jam every day, we are worried about finding a parking place. Does new technique make our life more complicated or simple? Therefore, the design principle of Cute-Case is to simplify our life.
