33 Christian Brandt/Vehicle Design chameleon concept The Chameleon concept is a small, inexpensive, individual city car that can change appearance through interchangeable coloured and translucent body panels. The car targets a range of user groups from first time buyers and young families to pensioners and city dwellers, allowing each to customise the car to their individual tastes. The versatility of the vehicle ensures that the requirements of these different groups are catered for. The car is designed to the latest stringent legislation governing Japanese city cars and its design is inspired by striking contrasts and strong culture in modern Japanese cities.
