The document outlines the design portfolio for the Tesla Model U, a compact, luxury four-seater urban vehicle intended for both family and carpool use. Key aspects of the design include a minimalist yet muscular exterior, a spacious interior inspired by home living spaces, and flexible solar cells on the roof to power cabin electronics. The interior features a dashboard inspired by Zaha Hadid's design for the Heydar Aliyev Center, along with a head-up display, sound bar, and touchscreen multifunction display. Seating can be configured for manual or autonomous driving modes to optimize space and functionality.
