Designers need to cultivate storylines and strategies inciting discussions over the key issues of smart and sustainable futuristic transportation. The automotive exterior aesthetics will be of prime importance in the future’s individualistic social scenario. With its form and overall personality, vehicle aesthetics needs to respond to the emotional state of the user. Bio-inspiration has been of prime interest in automotive design to meet automobile makers’ need to associate their machines with the appeal and capabilities of naturally optimized creatures. The proposed futuristic vehicle’s aesthetics has been conceptualized using the technology pull approach of bio-inspiration and the analogy transfer was considered to mimic the biological features and mechanisms of a whale into the aesthetical form of the proposed futuristic vehicle. Blue whales have unique skin pleats that act like human fingerprints to distinguish one creature from the other. This vehicle uses a similar mechanism for its identification and replaces the chassis number system of present-day vehicles. The geometric-organic infused aesthetics of the proposed concept come with a unibody to support the safety and materials needs of future transit. The overall form is cohesive and appeals to users with clean geometric lines blended into the organic body. Upwards-outwards opening doors add to the statement of the user. These doors overlap with the semantics of wings ready to fly.
