Designs of new mobility vehicles is one of the trending topics in the design field. Changes in the day-to-day necessities of people, rise of electric vehicles, modifications of the family structures and similar issues influence new design of vehicles that should be more ecologic, for less passengers and mainly designed for city environments. In the same way, the development of electric architectures has released space in the vehicles and allow redistributing elements inside the vehicle more freely compared with an internal combustion vehicle, allowing new designs and configurations inside the vehicle whose internal space is not so limited than in the past due to the mechanical parts. This article is centered in the design of a two-seater electric vehicle for an urban environment and include the study of the market, the study of the new functions and people necessities, the conceptual design, the formal design, distribution of the elements in the vehicle, in-detail design, ergonomic issues, computational studies, the CAD design, and design for assembly, economical aspects, etc. Finally, it has been developed the structure of the vehicle, as well as the chassis of the car and the interior and at the end, a prototype has been also created.
