Design and development of UrbanConcept car

The “UrbanConcept” vehicle is defined as a fuel economy pure electrical vehicle which will be the closer in appearance and technology to road-going vehicles, addressing current transportation. Increasing the fuel shortage and hiking the fuel price are made the political un-stability all over the w...
