Africar - Development of a Car for Africa

Anotace

The motor car or automobile has radically altered the world. It is fast becoming a prohibitively expensive luxury only suited to the economies and paved roads of developed countries. Now, even in the more affluent societies public expenditure is unable to properly maintain roads, the world's natural resources are being unreasonably depleted, air pollution is at a dangerous level and road deaths have reached an obscene 200,000 a year.
It is in the Third World that one can clearly see a relevance and future for the car. It is in countries without adequate roads and established public transport systems that there is a genuine application and need for the various forms of light motor vehicles.
Yet, because of its inadequacies and consumer—orientated origins, the car is virtually useless where it is most required.
With this in mind the author set about designing a new and revolutionary vehicle, an all-terrain, multi—purpose 'car', suitable for manufacture and use where the need is greatest — on the unpaved roads of developing countries. He named it AFRICAR.
