The design of electric vehicles will require the integration of new components in the near future. This transition is a key opportunity for a more radical change that allows for a positive transformation of passenger journey experience, interoperability and integration into the cityscape. The "Design Charter for Innovative Electric Busses" presents a design vision and strategies for the ecosystem of the "bus of tomorrow" that could inspire all sectors of the transportation industry.

2. The present buses:
an evolution driven
by the technologies
No expression of the electric modernity
Visible fairings of technical outgrowths
Weird interiors due to technical
constraints
ELECTRIC
DIESEL
Exteriors Interiors
GAS
HYBRID
3. A design charter for
innovative E-buses
21 concepts distributed along the
customer journey, described in 8 steps.
The vehicle as an aggregator of the
concepts, not a project by itself
4. Concept example #1:
recognisable exterior
A concept illustrated (and not a
design project illustrated)
Added values for each stakeholder
(passengers, operators, cities,
manufacturers)
6. SCENARIO
Action towards the
bus ecosystem
Target the buyers (PTA or PTO) and the
furnishers (manufacturers)
Let the stakeholders select a few concepts
from the scenario for incremental upgrade
