Project description.

Share this projectFacebookXLinkedIn
Designed for modern parents navigating school drop-offs, neighborhood errands, and short trips, this cabin tricycle embodies the philosophy of “light mobility, effortless joy.” Built on the advanced JSA smart mobility architecture, it integrates comprehensive protection, cabin comfort, intelligent assistance, and an understated, premium aesthetic into a cohesive experience—directly addressing the traditional shortcomings of cabin tricycles in styling, thermal management, safety, and everyday usability.

The cabin features an integrated climate control system with heating and cooling, using an airflow layout that avoids direct drafts for year-round comfort. The automotive-grade cage-style frame, anti-rollover chassis, and triple disc brakes work together to form a solid safety foundation. Millimeter-wave radar, front and rear cameras, and a dedicated rearview display help the driver stay aware of the surroundings. An electronic parking brake with hill-hold support streamlines parking and hill starts, and double-layer solar-control laminated glass reduces UV exposure and enhances protection. For family outings, wider door openings and an optimized cabin layout make it easier to carry children in and out, while lightweight steering reduces effort during daily driving.

Inspired by gentle, endearing animal forms, the exterior features smooth organic curves and a tall, compact, wide stance. Round biomimetic headlamps anchor the design, delivering an approachable, lively presence. A low-saturation palette of milky white, pale yellow, and light blue is layered with dark matte panels, electroplated trim, and laminated glass. The interplay of textures creates a clean, refined aesthetic with an understated, premium touch.
