Design a car from scratch

For once- the community decides what goes into the car

Splitwheel is a groundbreaking project to design and build a new performance car based on your input. They are world's first virtual car company and YOU get to decide what sort of car they should build. Combined with entertaining content about cars to inform their decisions, Splitwheel is a revolutionary new experience for enthusiasts. But Splitwheel is not just an online experiment. Their partner, legendary British sportscar manufacturer Caterham Cars, will be turning the designs into reality.
You will be voting on all the key decisions that will shape the design of the vehicle; from styling and engine options to specification, equipment and everything in between!

While project splitwheel is currently on hold, another project is underway to build the car for the future.

C,mm,n (pronounced common) is an open community design project that is not only counting on its members to help design a car but is also tasking them with producing a whole new mobility solution to cope with the challenging demands of the future. The blueprints for the proposed electric car concept and the mobility concepts are freely available under an open source licence and contributions are welcome from anyone and everyone. "Generally, any new generation of car builds on existing models. Refinements in design result in a new car that surpasses its predecessor in all aspects: bigger, more powerful, safer and better-looking. C,mm,n abandons this working method completely. The concept of the development of c,mm,n is built around the society of the future, with the needs of the mobilist of 2020 in mind."
