Ford Rescue X Concept Cars Design Proposal From Robert Engelmann

The Ford Rescue X concept cars is a vehicle specifically designed for search and rescue operations on rough terrains with the main goal of saving time during medical emergencies. The Ford Rescue X Concept cars is a study of a futuristic search and rescue vehicle designed for rough terrains that features a dedicated medical module and Computer Aided Surgery equipment. It was designed by German product design graduate Robert Engelmann.
The car has an original layout, with an open structure that integrates two seats for the driver and another operator, and a dedicated closed medical module, which is connected to the chassis by means of a mechanical balancing system. The medical module floats above the main structure and protects the passenger like an egg. A display window shows the passenger's health conditions.
One of the seats has an integrated first aid pack that can be quickly released, while the rotating wheel arches on the concept allow it to move through snow covered/ icy terrains. The medical module has a system to allow remote Computer Aided Surgery (CAS). The concept has an electric drivetrain utilizing four suspension-mounted motors.
This contributes to the safety of the injured person and allows a specialist to remotely operate the integrated medical equipment in order to do an emergency surgery anywhere.
