| DESIGN NAME: Citiport PRIMARY FUNCTION: Public Transportation Vehicle INSPIRATION: Citiports main usage area is inner city, which makes citizens final customers. Designers focused on a human oriented designing approach.

Equal joy for every individual, comfort, safety and ergonomic were the core focused values of Citiport. Dynamic and strong design language defines the characteristics of Citiport UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Citiports side line below the window is lowered which enables interior to be more spacious and bright. This also gives the wheelchair users to have a better trip experience. Sliding indicator from front to the side is simplifying the visibility of the panel.

Extreme conditions first aid kit with defibrillator, emergency blanket, oropharyngeal airway, ambu bag. OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: One of the important inputs for Anadolu Isuzu is the fact that the vehicle has to be driven effortlessly. Any driver should easily adapt to the vehicle by creating his personal work space to have a more comfortable drive. Adjustable steering and the podium provide a more ergonomic driving experience. As a result, driver can arrange the steering wheel and cluster position at the same time which extends the drivers reachability.

TAGS: Anadolu Isuzu, Bus, 12 meters, transportation, comfort, human oriented, strong, equality, sensitiveness, cautious, safety, ergonomic, dynamic, accessibility, design, Isuzu, Isuzu Design Team, freedom, long lasting, ecological, energic RESEARCH ABSTRACT: A wide range of focus groups, field surveys, and interviews were conducted to identify the needs and expectations of the the product's potential buyers, users, drivers, and operators. As a result of these studies, customer expectations and product performance were compared and the points to be improved were identified. We attended in the disabled peoples meetings to identify their needs during their product experience. CHALLENGE: Working and sharing experiences with a health care company while defining the content of the extreme conditions first aid kit was challenging. Designing the side line of the bus in a stylish and dynamic way at a place where it had always been produced in a conventional way was another challenge. While doing this, we added some very important values for all range of users.
