Following the automotive industry
bookPart
Designers of wheel loader and excavator cabins generally take a sharp notice of design trends in the automotive industry. Though strongly functionality based, the interiors of construction vehicles also follow design trends that can be seen in the automotive industry. Heavy equipment should also have a comfortable car-like cab. Because the automotive industry is most advanced in investigating future design and in setting design trends, it pays to take a look at trends in the automotive industry and what can be expected in future vehicle interiors. Some general design trends and trends in automobile design, including exapmles of several concept cars, are explained in this chapter of the book 'Comfortable earth moving machinery : knowledge and experiences from the Eurocabin project'.
