The Woman’s Car
I’m reading on HowStuffWorks and came across the article for the Volvo ‘Your Concept Car’, designed by an all-female team of Volvo employees. I was giggling with the embroidered flowers on the seats and ‘Auto Park,’ but this had me rolling:
Most striking when looking at the car from the front is that it doesn’t have a hood. The design team determined that their target audience doesn’t need to look under the hood. The front section of the chassis can be lifted in a garage, but it does not open like a traditional hood.
If men designed a car like this, he’d be condemned as a misogynist. Truly laughable.
