    UNIVERSIDADE DE LISBOA FACULDADE DE BELAS-ARTES MICROCARROS EUROPEUS Design e Mobilidade sustentável Maria João Tavares dos Santos Gabriel Dissertação Mestrado em Design de Equipamento Especialização em Design de Produto Dissertação orientada pelo Professor Doutor Paulo Parra 2019 DECLARAÇÃO DE AUTORIA Eu, Maria João Tavares dos Santos Gabriel, declaro que a presente dissertação de mestrado intitulada “MICROCARROS EUROPEUS”, é o resultado da minha investigação pessoal e independente. O conteúdo é original e todas as fontes consultadas estão devidamente mencionadas na bibliografia ou outras listagens de fontes documentais, tal como todas as citações diretas ou indiretas têm devida indicação ao longo do trabalho segundo as normas académicas. O Candidato Lisboa, 31 de outubro de 2019 RESUMO A presente dissertação tem como tema “Microcarros Europeus – Design e Mobilidade sustentável”. O principal objetivo deste trabalho traduz-se na construção de uma leitura sistematizada do projeto e implementação de microcarros europeus ao longo do século XX, tendo em vista não só o esclarecimento/definição do próprio conceito, mas também a perceção do seu papel atual e futuro a nível da mobilidade urbana sustentável. Neste sentido, percorrem-se dimensões como o design específico dos veículos, antecessores, autores e empresas envolvidas, assim como o contexto socioeconómico inerente. Como metodologia, realizou-se uma pesquisa exaustiva em fontes bibliográficas e fontes on-line, para além de contactos diretos com colecionadores e especialistas na temática, através de fóruns de debate e participação em encontros e mostras nacionais. Os microcarros consistem em veículos motorizados, que surgiram na Europa após a Segunda Guerra Mundial, num contexto de escassez de recursos económicos, energéticos e de materiais de produção.

  • 30Yearsoftre Austin 1800
    The British Motor Corporation (Australia), released the Austin 1800 onto the local 30YEARSOFTRE market on the 22nd November 1965, just thirteen months after the model's release in the UK. During the extra months develop­ AUSTIN 1800 ment, various modifications were made to the car. These modifications were later to be incorporated into the UK models. The 1800 soon became a popular car, even being voted the Modern Motor's best compact of the year, in fact the interior space inside the car still leaves almost all other cars far behind (with the exception of Rollers etc). In Australia approximately 60,000 Austin 1800 were produced. The Austin 1800 had various rallying success in its time including a win in the Southern Cross Rally (1969), and coming second (beating Falcon GT's and Porsche), and sixth, in the 1968 London to Sydney A rare care in Australia is this Austin 3 litre, a large car with 6 cylinder conventional drive using the Marathon.

  • 2008 10 Magazine
    Anything But Average October 2008 VOL 26 EDITION 333 Official Publication of the P76 Owners Club of Victoria Inc. Editorial I can’t believe how quickly this year is passing by. There’s only about 10 weeks until Christmas and (all going well) 10 weeks until David and I will be visited by the stork. It’s all going really well for me so far - not too many complaints. We went to an ante- natal class recently which was really interesting. Next week we’re off to Queensland to visit my uncles farm in Miles. He’s a mad Jeep enthusiast and I’m sure we will have plenty of stories and photos to bring back. David and I held the annual Bathurst BBQ last weekend. I say BBQ, but this year we had a spit roast which went really well, although there was a very smoky start! It was a beautiful spring day which meant we could enjoy the race outside and take in a few rays. Overall it was a really great day but a real shame as not one P76 club member attended this year. Though we don’t usually get many members attending, in the past there have been enough to make it worthwhile to continue holding it as a club event. Unfortunately, I think this will be the last. The other event we attended this month was P’s on Tour (in Gippsland). John did a really great job organising this event, especially given the short notice and we had a fantastic time. Though it was disappointing that none of our members joined us for the drive to Maffra.

  • The Britain Economy and Marginal Motoring 1915 to 2015
    The Britain Economy and Marginal Motoring 1915 to 2015 Introduction The wealthy portion of the population of Great Britain were no strangers to personal transport, having access to the horse and carriage. With the advent of the motoring era they were quick to convert to this new and expensive form of personal transport, the car. By 1914 the cars purchased by the wealthy Britons were heavy motorcar, some times very heavy. Other less wealthy people who wanted or needed a car for personal transport for business or pleasure turned to the makers of the less expensive but still very expensive light car. This article is about how with some distractions along the way, the ultra light car became more affordable to the general population of Great Britain. Cycle Car era Between the beginning of the twentieth century and the first World War, the first light cars were produced and a need for low cost motor transport was recognised. After 1912 all cars with engines less than 1100cc, were classed as cycle-cars for sporting purposes in Europe. The term Cycle-car was in general usage in Britain to describe all cars with engines with less than four cylinders. The cars with four cylinder engines being classed as light cars. Thing were not that clear cut, there were the true or primitive Cycle-car’s, all chains and belts, the economy light cars with twin cylinder engines, with four cylinder engines, and some makes of economy light car with either twin or four cylinder engines, all under 1100 c.c. The true or primitive cycle-cars made by utilising motor cycle type component, they were produced as a low cost alternative to the light cars of the time and for a period either side of the first World War had a significant impact on the motoring scene but by the middle of the nineteen twenties had virtually disappeared.
