Gordon Murray Design
announces that they are officially ‘On Sale’ with the T.25 City Car &
licenses for their new iStream manufacturing process.
The T.25 is a radical,
innovative design for a new type and class of personal transport vehicle
that offers solutions to reduce congestion and parking problems whilst
addressing the issue of full lifecycle CO2 damage. It is designed and
packaged to protect mobility, personal freedom and driving ‘fun’ whilst
greatly reducing the environmental damage from vehicle manufacturing.
The iStream
assembly process is a complete rethink and redesign of the traditional
manufacturing process and could potentially be the biggest revolution in
high volume manufacture since the Model T. The iStream design process
is a complete re-think on high volume materials, as well as the
manufacturing process and will lead to a significant reduction in
CO2 emissions over the lifecycle of the vehicles produced using it,
compared with conventional ones. The design process has therefore been
built around the mantra of ‘Think Light’ and all materials for each
variant are carefully selected to be as light as possible whilst being
‘fit for purpose.’
In short, the T.25
architecture, packaging, materials selection and manufacturing process
promises to be the biggest revolution in the mass production of cars in
the last 100 years.
Whilst the T.25 is
only officially on sale this month, Gordon Murray Design have already
been approached by 15 potential clients based in 12 different
countries. Gordon Murray says “This is an idea that began in 1993 and,
with the hard work of the team and help from our investors, it’s great
to finally see it coming to fruition. I believe the timing is perfect
given the current situation within the automotive industry. |
