In one city there are about 8000 households. On average, they go
to the store to shop 3 days a week and drive
then car about 2.5 km each time. A car has an emission of about
150g CO2 per km (The number of emissions is stated
compensated for electric car share and share of older cars) This
gives a CO2 emission per year of 9000 tons of CO2 only
from shopping trips in the city. If we replace the car with a
suitable bicycle that is co-owned by households in a
housing area (approx. 5 households per bicycle) and this bicycle
replaces car use from and including April to and including
September we will save 4500 tons of CO2
You should suggest a design for such a bike
• Show that you can attack such a task systematically
• Prepare various proposals - concepts
• Evaluate these concepts based on
o User requirements,
o Government requirements
o User environment
o Storage / shared use
