A new segment between quadricycle and automobile: utopia or necessity?

Our vehicles are becoming heavier, more complex and more expensive. Is there a need for an intermediate link between light quadricycles and M1 cars?
This is a question that merits real debate.

SIA and ESTACA invite you to an afternoon of discovery and exchange on this topical subject on the Laval campus. The afternoon will start with an exhibition of prototypes, followed by a conference/debate at the crossroads of social, environmental and strategic issues. This event, bringing together experts, manufacturers and students to discuss the prospects of a new segment of mobility, is open to all mobility enthusiasts.
