Vayuna interprets the cabriolet as a young, sporty and transformable car. With a bold and recognizable character, it shifts from a two-seater to a 2+2 Gran Turismo through a dynamic roof and canopy system, combining freedom, visual simplicity and essential interiors designed to offer calm and function.
The thesis project in Transportation Design stems from the collaboration with Tata Motors and invites students to imagine the brand’s first cabriolet, translating its identity and ambitions into desirable and sustainable proposals. The process combined research, experimentation and design vision, exploring future mobility scenarios, formal languages and new ways of connecting the car, the user and the surrounding context.
