PIX Beastie
Two Seater Electric Vehicle for PIX Moving
PIX Beastie is a two seater electric vehicle that transforms urban mobility through biomimetic design and AI powered engineering. Drawing inspiration from the skeletal structure of a dinosaur skull, its entire frame, including the body and chassis, is produced using industrial metal 3D printing. This innovative process enables the creation of complex, organic geometries that combine superior strength with lightweight performance. A LED screen mounted at the rear and a modular interior allow for customization, enhancing interactivity and personalization.

Production Technology
It combines generative design with industrial metal 3D printing, leveraging AI powered simulation design and structural topology optimization to maximize material performance and utilization, achieving both lightweight construction and enhanced strength. The simulation design helps identify weak points in the structure and optimize them, ensuring the vehicle maintains both aesthetics and functionality while achieving high strength and material efficiency. The body and chassis are entirely made using 3D printing technology, providing the vehicle with a unique structure and flexibility, breaking the limitations of traditional manufacturing.
Design Challenge
The biggest challenge was integrating the biomimetic design with practical automotive manufacturing. Our goal was to create a body structure that is both aesthetic, efficient, and durable. However, the complex organic shapes and unconventional angles posed challenges in 3D printing. We overcame these challenges by using algorithms to adjust material distribution and printing angles, ensuring the design remained visually appealing, structurally strong, and optimized for the best printing results and stability.
Project Duration
The project started in June 2023 in China and completed the development phase in June 2024. The prototype was first exhibited at the Okinawa Expo in Japan in November 2024. It will be showcased next at the IAA Mobility exhibition in Germany in September 2025.
Operation Flow
It is a micro electric vehicle designed for urban travel, offering simple operation similar to a regular car. Its main features include lightweight construction and high efficiency, providing a smooth and comfortable driving experience, especially for navigating narrow city streets with ease. It comes with an AI voice assistant that offers driving support and emotional companionship through voice commands. Additionally, it supports home charging, delivering superior performance and energy efficiency compared to traditional cars, ensuring an exceptional user experience.
Research
Our research focused on designing an innovative urban mobility solution. The goal was to create a lightweight, efficient, and environmentally friendly electric vehicle using advanced technologies. We employed generative design and AI powered simulations to optimize structure and performance. Data was collected through prototyping and testing, focusing on material efficiency and user experience. Key participants included automotive engineers, industrial designers, and AI experts. Results showed significant improvements in strength, material usage, and energy efficiency, impacting automotive design and urban mobility.
Inspiration
Observing that most vehicles today are monotonous, we envisioned a highly personalized mode of transportation. Inspired by the biomechanical efficiency of dinosaur skulls, we created a vehicle that is not only durable and efficient but also stands out on the street, symbolizing both identity and attitude. Recognizing the challenges of narrow streets and limited parking in many European cities, we aimed to design a compact, efficient vehicle to help people navigate urban environments with ease. Through AI powered generative design and industrial metal 3D printing, we achieved complex organic geometries that seamlessly combine functionality, aesthetics, and innovation, resulting in a design unattainable through traditional methods.
