Anti-Template considerations
Here are some considerations which designers included in the calculus of vehicle specifications listed in Hucho's 2nd-Edition, December, 1986:
* 'risk to sale' * 'commercial success' * 'stylist' * 'more expensive' * 'add to product cost' * 'customer-oriented cost benefit calculation' * 'economically viable in the eye of the customer' * 'look-alike' * 'individuality' * 'practical' * 'styling' * 'light diffusion' * 'convenience' * 'conform to current styles' * 'the design of a vehicle is not dictated wholly by aerodynamics' * 'production success' * 'readily accepted by the public' * 'too revolutionary' * 'utility' * 'ergonomic limit' * 'practical requirements of automotive engineering' * 'fuel prices' * 'unwillingness to interact with the stylists' * 'technical constraints' * 'legal requirements' * 'trends' * 'fashion' * 'uniformity' * 'the buying public' * 'marque identity' * 'production engineering' * 'A series of formally different solutions was worked, in order to allow the stylist ( Giorgio Giugiaro ) the possibility of selecting the one best suited to his design.' Re: first-gen Golf/Rabbit * 'The mass-produced Scirocco-I was equipped with a rear spoiler...which had no negative effect upon the external appearance and simultaneously contributed to a high buckling strength to the rear lid.' |
