"Design means breaking things". To me, design is an experiment in seeking better solutions.

I’m Haoyu Wang, an ID student who worked on a project to enhance urban commuting, aimed to design a new e-scooter, offering people an alternative travel option in congested cities and contributing to lower carbon emissions.

The TUXEDO e-scooter is a versatile solution for urban commuting. It's foldable, deformable, and equipped with a cargo loading system. Ideal for daily needs, it can transform into a shopping cart for indoor environments. This e-scooter is suitable for most occasions——commuting from work, grocery shopping, or even carrying beer to your friend's party——Instead of calling an Uber!

Outstanding Project: Mobility
