This is a full-sized model produced by IED graduate students this year for their graduation project. A full-electric SUV designed in collaboration with Mitsubishi Motors and envisioning what cars will be like in 2035, it gives sublime form to the passionate and overwhelmingly stable proportions the students created based on the keyword "Go Everywhere" and Mitsubishi's design language, "Ingenious, Robust and Generous."
