All Terrain Sport Coupe by Batyr Ospanov

The All Terrain sport coupe is a two seater, electrically powered vehicle with two driving modes helping the driver to run it on both smooth and rough surfaces. The first mode which is “Road Mode” keeps the car in a shape of a normal vehicle and allows it to travel along the traffic. When the user switches it to Off-Road mode the vehicle becomes higher and wider since the wheels come out and the chassis becomes higher to allow the car travel through rough terrains such as steppes and deserts. There are solar cells placed on the glassed door so that when the user stops the vehicle and lift the door, the cells can produce some extra power. Under the transparent bonnet there are two extra lights helping the user to travel through the desert during night.
