Modularity Sketch - 11th of June, 2009

One of the strongest concepts that are coming up from the discussion of the first phase of this project is modularity.

“In an electric vehicle, modularity can also help owners, to upgrade their vehicles once new technologies come to the market, Want a more powerful motor? Need new batteries? Just swap it. Want to hit the trails on the weekend? Exchange the wheels, take the second passenger seat out and go eat some mud.” quote from project status discussion

The Idea of a plug and play electric vehicle that can be highly customized by a community of designers and suppliers seems quite interesting to me. It will be good to find examples of hardware modularity that can help us in the development of a “hardware framework” to build our vehicle around.
