Popis: The increase of transportation facility needs raises a problems, especially pollution caused by motor vehicle exhaust that directly affects the decline of air function. Consequently, it is needed an effort to build alternative technologies and eco-friendly vehicles as transportation, in order to reduce the negative impact of exhaust emissions from fossil-fueled vehicles. This research was conducted to design and improve energy-saving and eco-friendly product that can be utilized as transportation. Accordingly, to improve the design of energy-saving and environmentally friendly vehicles, this research is conducted using research and development, for 5 years, starting in 2017 until 2021. Based on a survey towards 327 people that spread across major cities in Indonesia, the result reveals that the design of energy-saving and environmentally friendly vehicles required is a multi-purpose vehicle (multi-purpose vehicle / MPV). By considering the aspect of energy consumption and its impact on the environment, then the concept to improve is city car vehicle concept with 2 seats capacity plus baggage which is able to carry load of 60 kg. The selected vehicle specifications includes 2200 mm long dimension, 1800 mm width, 1700 mm height, 160 mm clearance ground, 1000 cc engine capacity, and 2 x 3000 W motor capacity.
