Innovations in Design

The exterior design of the Jimny Concept Off-Road embodies the essence of compactness and lightness. Inspired by the structure of a camera, the main volume of its exterior resembles the lens enclosure. Just as a camera lens is encased within its body, the entire cabin of the car is enveloped by the exterior structure. Shaped like a glass, the cabin features a cylindrical design, enhancing the driver's visibility and allowing for a clearer view of the road from various angles. This wrapping structure not only contributes to the simplicity and elegance of the design but also enhances the safety of the cabin.

Furthermore, the yellow metal components installed at the front and rear of the vehicle serve a practical purpose beyond mere decoration. The front component can be removed and used as a Recovery Traction Board for navigating through challenging terrains like sand, mud, and snow, as well as other difficult environments. The rear component functions as a ladder, facilitating access to the car's roof. Additionally, these metal components secure the front and rear luggage, providing flexibility during loading and unloading activities. This design feature caters perfectly to the needs of outdoor YouTubers, allowing them to fully equip themselves for their vlogging trips.

The interior design of the Jimny Concept Off-Road focuses on strength, safety, and functionality. Everything inside is arranged to help the driver film their vlogs while driving in the wilderness. When the designer first started brainstorming ideas, they focused on making the interior simple and practical, with sketches that followed the principle of "form follows function." The goal is to create a space that surrounds the driver and makes it easy for them to film their vlogs effectively while on the go.

Cutting-Edge Features of Jimny Off-Road Concept

• The instrument panel in the Jimny Concept Off-Road is designed to be simple yet efficient. It's easy to understand and use, while still keeping the tough and rugged style needed for off-road driving. It offers two modes for drivers: drive mode and drone mode, making it versatile for different needs.
• The central console can be folded down from the passenger seat when driving alone. This creates a space for small storage and charging, making it convenient for solo trips.

• A tracking camera is mounted on the top glass of the interior. It follows a track to film from different angles, inspired by the filming techniques of many YouTubers.
• Each seat has its own special function for different modes of driving. Inspired by the materials and structure of locks, which symbolize security and stability, the seats are designed to be secure and comfortable. Some camping equipment, like a camping lamp, is integrated into the seats for convenience. The passenger seat, which combines with the central console, is slightly larger than the driver's seat and can be folded down to store luggage, providing relaxation and space management.

The interior of the Jimny Concept Off-Road mainly features a combination of yellow and black colours. This mix is chosen to evoke feelings of energy and activity. Certain parts of the interior, like the upper section and the steering wheel, have rough particles added to them. This rough texture enhances the tactile experience, giving a better grip and feel. Furthermore, the carpet is made of plastic material, which makes it easy to clean. This is particularly useful for off-road adventures, as it can quickly handle any dirt or mud that gets tracked into the car.

Conclusion

The Jimny Concept Off-Road is more than just a rugged and intelligent vehicle built to tackle challenging terrains; it's also a tool that helps outdoor YouTubers capture their adventures professionally. Its stability and smart features enable drivers to conquer various types of roads, even in the toughest conditions. This versatility ensures that both outdoor YouTubers and off-road enthusiasts will find it indispensable. Additionally, its capabilities extend beyond the wilderness, making it a favourite among city users as well. Whether you're exploring the great outdoors or navigating urban streets, the Jimny Concept Off-Road is sure to impress with its performance and utility.
