The age of super-compacts is in full swing, but with that smaller wheelbase comes compromise in stability. MONO is a transformable EV that adapts its stance to maximize the driving experience whether you’re in the city or on the open road. The vehicle automatically adjusts the wheelbase depending on road type, traffic, or speed to ensure stability and practicality no matter the driving conditions. In its compact form the EV is only slightly larger than a motorcycle, making it perfect for zipping around the city.

I like it! Might be a little unstable because of all the moving parts, though… That would need to be really well engineered.
I also really like that the designer didn’t slap a random pre-existing brand name on it.
Need 4 place model or mini truck for Urban use
Id rent this for Urban drives in say Munich & Berlin
Love to see Toyota or Nissan produce this
Radical
Great for tourist rentals alone.
Thank you for the comment!!
I tried to figure out the engineering, but it was too complicated to me, so I just made a basic structure.
Its a nice design but i think making it ‘transform’ would add too much to the cost of production and maintenance.
Yes. It is too much cost.
But, it is a future concept design,
and air plane was super expensive for manufacturing 100 years ago as well
By the presentation here, just to ensure the vehicle transforms perfectly on the move, will be a challenge. Nevertheless, I do like the concept and I would like to see if any body will make something like this.
my view of a transformer narrow to large
