The world faces an escalating climate crisis, with conventional vehicles leaving an immense carbon footprint—yet awareness and action remain limited. While ride-sharing apps exist, they often demand fragmented attention, forcing drivers to juggle between devices and in-car systems. Elyvion disrupts this norm by embedding ride-sharing as a native, default feature within every vehicle, creating a seamless, distraction-free experience that not only simplifies the process but also instills a sense of responsibility and pride in contributing to a greener planet.
U S E R I N S I G H T S
A targeted user research was conducted to understand the challenges faced by EV drivers in integrating ride-sharing into their daily routines, focusing on usability, safety, and convenience.
Say they would be more likely to offer ride-sharing if the process was effortless and integrated into their dashboard.
Drivers do not have time to set up ride-sharing once inside the car, as opening a separate device is inconvenient.
Find switching between ride-sharing apps and in-car controls distracting, affecting driving focus.
Prefer an all-in-one system but feel existing solutions are disjointed and require multiple steps.

My journey began as a Front-End Developer after earning my degree in IT, where I had the opportunity to explore the world of graphics and animation with my team. That passion naturally led me to UI design, and soon after, I immersed myself in UX. To deepen my expertise, I pursued a Master’s in Interaction Design, focusing on UX/UI—shaping the career I love today.
