Brief : 3rd year elective where a group of students were given different criterias to create electric vehicles (E.V). My group was given commuter. For this brief we wanted to make the E.V to appeal to the biggest range of people possible, for this we wanted to go for an old school-New school style, taking inspiration from Chopper push bikes. 

Cooper was designed with the urban commuter in mind, Mainly aimed at University Students and Young professionals, Cooper sports an electric rear hub motor, great for an eco minded Urban dweller. Integrated into the frame we have the onboard clip in bag, this allows users to carry goods safely on the go. Cooper also has a built in battery case, allowing you to take it out for charging and safe storage onboard for when your traversing over rough terrain. 
Cooper was Designed and built with the help of a great team all putting in great ideas and excellent team work to produce a great overall product, earning us a silver in the Best awards 2019 (student product)
