will try, but the low headroom is one of the identifying features of the OTJ e.
Remember our design principles: FORM FOLLOWS FUNCTION.
While I appreciate the low roof as a feature of OTJs, you have to take note of the ergonomics of generation Z. Kids nowadays are much taller than their predecessors.
That's the challenge you have to face as a designer.
That's why I would like to know if you've done your ergonomic sketches.
Have you already designed it from inside-out? Can we see the clearances?
Let's assume the average height of your passengers to be 1800 mm.
Fit the passengers in first, then do the exterior style tweaking to fit the look you like.
