South African-born Prof. Gordon Murray's long-awaited T.25 City Car will make its first public appearance at the Smith School's World Forum on Enterprise and the Environment in Oxford today.
The T.25 represents a major breakthrough in city car design in the areas of weight,footprint, safety, usability and efficiency.
While applying a holistic and fit for purpose approach to the design and development of the T.25, Prof. Murray's company Gordon Murray Design has taken the opportunity to incorporate solutions to a multiple of urban mobility problems into the T.25 design.
A world-leading 6 metre turning circle will help with urban manoeuvring and parking while its 1.3 metre width opens any opportunity for timed lane zones with two vehicles travelling and overtaking in one lane.
Combining this with the car's short length could triple lane usage at peak times, as well as opening an opportunity to park end on to the curb, while the door opening allows three cars to be parked in one parallel parking space.
The T.25 has recently been seen testing on public roads and has featured in many publications but the Smith School World Forum is the first public appearance and Gordon Murray Design is excited to now be able to release the first images of the car's interior and seating position.
