Putting Car Enthusiasts in the Driver's Seat from the
Comfort of Their Home with Customized 3-D Renderings and Infinite
Configuration Possibilities
KISSIMMEE, Fla., Jan. 31,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- ECD Automotive Design,
Inc. (NASDAQ: ECDA), the world's largest Land Rover and Jaguar
restoration company, known for its bespoke luxury Land Rover
Defenders, Range Rovers and Jaguar E-Types, today announces the
launch of its best-in-class web-based custom vehicle configurator.
The configurator, available today on our website, is a design tool
that allows the user to customize and visualize their dream vehicle
from any computer, tablet or phone in the comfort of their own
home. It is an answer to growing demand by clients to be able to
virtually build their customized vehicle as many times as they
would like on their own schedules before stepping foot in the ECD
design studio.
Tom Humble, Chief Experience
Officer and Co-Founder of ECD, stated, "This isn't your standard
web-based vehicle configuration tool. When we designed it, we kept
the user experience in the forefront to ensure not only user
friendliness, but also to elevate its abilities exponentially. Our
goal is always to continue to enhance the user experience by
listening and responding to client needs."
ECD's system provides more configuration options, compared to
other admirable top-level vehicle configurators, such as for the
Aston Martin DBX, including 3-D visualization from an infinite
number of camera angles. Other configurators stop at a 2-D image
and fixed camera angle. The old ECD configurator system provided
over two million possible combinations, whereas ECD's new system is
literally limitless and the user can design from the comfort of
their own home.
ECD's new web-based design tool allows the user to configure the
exterior of their dream classic Defender, Range Rover or Jaguar
E-Type with option categories such as roof style, body color, roll
cage type, vent type, side-step, hinge type, door handle color,
sunroof, front and rear lighting, grille type, front bumper type,
steering guard, accessories, emblems, and several others. A sample
of interior configuration options include, but is not limited to
dash, trim, seating and console colors, seating configurations and
type, steering wheel options, and pedal, flooring and gauge
options.
"This is truly a revolutionary tool that allows anyone to dream
and configure a custom ECD vehicle to their specifications at any
location," said Scott Wallace, CEO
at ECD. "It allows the user to configure a custom vehicle with
literally endless possibilities when you consider color
options."
Not only are there more configuration and visualization options,
but the system is also incredibly user friendly. Its fast load time
and pan to work area capability was designed to provide a seamless
interaction experience. Once designed, the user can save their
configuration and send it to others for preview and then to ECD
before setting their appointment. The configurations can also be
saved and transferred between Range Rover and Defender models where
applicable.
Humble added, "Our goal is to constantly evolve and even
revolutionize the user experience and be the company that others
benchmark against. Our clients are always our first priority, and
we will continue to listen to their needs and respond
positively,"
