- Brief description
Mobility is constantly changing and this leads to an increasing number and variety of mobility concepts. The 'classic' automobile is only one representative here. Inner-city transportation with small and micro vehicles is also an aspect that is addressed in the module. On the other hand, there are also many parallels between cars and agricultural vehicles and construction machinery, for example in terms of package and structural design. These aspects will also be taken into account.
