Volvo, a division of Ford, was one of the first to recognise the need for female designers and tasked a team to create the YCC (“Your Concept Car”) aimed at women motorists. While some features perpetuated the stereotype of female drivers - computerised assistance for parallel parking, the ability to get shopping bags in and out of the car more easily, and bumpers around the whole car - we were impressed with the cool gull-wing doors and the engine that didn’t require maintenance for 30,000 miles.
Pictured above is the YCC concept, and you can see more images of it after the jump.
