Project Overview

Aries is a compact electric micromobility vehicle designed for Tofaş (Stellantis) as a graduation project. It responds to the increasing demand for individual space and time efficiency in urban commuting, particularly targeting white-collar professionals living in densely populated megacities. The main aim of the project is to transform time lost in traffic into personal time, while minimizing the vehicle's footprint in urban environments. Measuring approximately 2430 mm in length, 1590 mm in height, and 1230 mm in width, Aries offers the maneuverability of a micro-scale vehicle while providing just enough interior volume for personal belongings and daily needs. Visually, Aries is defined by a bold yellow character line, formed by an embossed surface that horizontally splits the body and glass areas. This continuous line conveys motion, direction, and clarity—serving as both a functional break and a branding element. On the front, the charging port is hidden beneath a logo-bearing lid, which lifts to reveal the electric socket. This solution elegantly integrates a utilitarian detail into the vehicle's clean visual language. The vehicle takes its name and identity from the form of the ram horn–inspired headlights, symbolizing clarity, drive, and strength—key themes in the concept's visual and functional DNA. The horizontal mid-body structure not only emphasizes stability and protection but also contributes structurally to torsional rigidity and durability. All electric components, including the motor and battery units, are integrated within a lightweight internal frame to maximize energy efficiency. Inside, a simplified dashboard and intuitive control interfaces prioritize usability and clarity in a fast-moving urban routine. Aries is more than a transportation device—it is a modern mobility statement about reclaiming personal time, reducing spatial impact, and enabling focused, sustainable commuting in the city.
