This was the first direction I went with for the design of the Tour Vehicles (V.E.E.Vs), basing it heavily upon the existing vehicle architecture I had designed for the ranger vehicles. The thinking was that the elements would most likely have evolved to be similar with tapered wheels, smooth surfaces, and and overall lozenge-shaped profile and three-section body. I even made some solid progress towards realizing it in 3D before I took a step back and decided that a multi-purpose vehicle like the V.E.E.V would need to have more amphibious capabilities, and so I switched to the screw-propulsion design that would become the final iteration.
I still really like the overall direction of this though, so maybe It might return as some kind of larger ranger vehicle or truck? Still a little too futuristic as-is, but maybe with some squaring off and addition of grills/exhaust/hardware it might fill the role.
