🎨 Colour Strategy
Developed a three‑tier exterior color strategy balancing brand identity, manufacturability, and environmental durability.

Primary palette: Michigan‑inspired tones (Lake Superior Blue, Iron Ore Metallic, Winter Birch White) to reinforce regional identity.

Accent palette: High‑visibility contrast colors for functional elements (tow hooks, charge ports, recovery points).

Interior palette: Warm neutrals paired with technical blacks and desaturated blues to create a calm, confidence‑building cabin environment.

Color zoning used to visually clarify structure, safety‑critical components, and user‑interaction points.

🧱 Material Selection
Body panels: Lightweight aluminum alloy for corrosion resistance and repairability.

Underbody protection: High‑strength boron steel and composite skid plates for durability.

Interior surfaces: Recycled PET textiles, bio‑based polymers, and soft‑touch TPO for sustainability and tactile comfort.

Touchpoints: Rubberized coatings and silicone‑based elastomers for grip and temperature stability.

Lighting elements: Polycarbonate lenses with UV‑stable coatings for long‑term clarity.

Trim: Powder‑coated aluminum and matte‑finished stainless steel for longevity and premium feel.

🪞 Finish Hierarchy
High‑touch zones: Soft‑touch matte finishes to reduce fingerprints and improve tactile quality.

Medium‑touch zones: Low‑gloss textures for durability and visual consistency.

Low‑touch zones: Hard‑coat or semi‑gloss finishes optimized for cleanability and wear resistance.

Exterior hierarchy:

Primary surfaces: High‑depth gloss for perceived quality

Functional surfaces: Textured matte for durability

Protective surfaces: Micro‑texture to hide wear and debris

🧩 Texture Studies
Developed micro‑texture patterns for interior panels to reduce glare and improve scratch concealment.

Introduced directional textures on grab handles and controls to enhance intuitive use.

Exterior cladding uses a fine‑grain texture to visually reduce mass and improve dirt‑hiding performance.

Seat fabrics incorporate a woven technical pattern inspired by Michigan industrial heritage.

⭐ Perceived‑Quality Improvements
Tightened gap/flush targets around lighting, doors, and liftgate to elevate craftsmanship.

Aligned surface breaks with structural logic to create visual stability and reduce perceived complexity.

Integrated lighting elements with seamless transitions to avoid “bolt‑on” appearance.

Improved tactile feedback on controls through material density and micro‑texture tuning.

Reduced visual noise by harmonizing gloss levels across adjacent components.

🔗 Surface Transitions
Designed smooth transitions between metal, polymer, and composite surfaces to eliminate harsh edges.

Used shadow lines and chamfers to visually separate functional zones without adding part count.

Applied consistent radii across exterior panels to unify the vehicle’s form language.

Interior transitions between soft and hard materials follow ergonomic touch‑paths.

🛋️ Interior CMF Strategy
Focused on calming, recovery‑friendly environments aligned with your MEV mission.

Soft‑touch materials in all primary touch zones.

Warm, low‑contrast color palette to reduce cognitive load.

Durable, easy‑clean materials selected for real‑world use and longevity.

Metallic accents used sparingly to highlight key interaction points.

Ambient lighting tuned to reinforce comfort and safety.

🚗 Exterior Paint & Trim Strategy
Tri‑coat and metallic options for premium variants.

Matte and satin finishes for off‑road or performance‑oriented trims.

Black‑out trim package using UV‑stable matte black powder coat.

Chrome‑free design direction to align with modern sustainability and brand identity.

Wheel finishes offered in satin graphite, machined aluminum, and textured black.

Color‑coded recovery points and functional hardware for clarity and brand character.
