“NNC” concept for micro electric vehicle

Japan has been a super-aging society since 2007. The authors proposed a small four-wheeled vehicle along a concept called “NNC” suitable for such a society as Japan. The abbreviation “NNC” is after the initials of the following words, Narrow, Near and Current. A vehicle along the concept is about up to 1m wide and 2.5m long, tandem for two passengers, only for neighborhood business and can join the road traffic flow of ordinary cars. Vehicles by the NNC concept will be a new mobility device not a car nor a bicycle, which can be helpful for elderly drivers, mothers in childcare and can improve the structures of urban cities and rural areas.
