Front Isometric

The car uses mostly curves in its design, putting aside the lines for the doors. It is balanced and symmetrical, applying a sense of sturdiness through the use of wood. The red and black are complementary of each other on the car. The texture of the car itself is quite smooth while the wheels are rough and very realistic to the tires of a real car in look and feel.

The purpose and primary function of the toy card are to roll around and keep children entertained. Regarding the wheels, they don't fall off upon spinning because if we look at the axle, it has a stopper that is wider at the ends to stop the wheels from falling off. The end is split so that they can be pushed together and made smaller when trying to remove and put in the wheels but then expand again to its normal size when put in place.
