Nigerians na him you dey take play, once you bring an innovation, dem go clap for you. Na there e go end.

Design the engine first. Everybody can play around with autocad

Am working on the engine design am almost done

Can you sell it?

A lot of people can cook fried rice better than chicken republic.......but very few can sell like them.

If you are good in selling .....people will buy even if you're selling trash.

That's actually deep and informative.i don't think am good at selling it.do you have suggestions on how to sell it?

i designed a reservoir that had provision for fight fighters as well as serving the community...till today nobody send the design...fire fighters go dry run around with empty trucks...

NIGERIA na wa

Wow that's cool if you don't mind can I see the design if that's okay with you.i understand you bro Nigeria na cruise

Before embarking on production ask yourself a few questions.

Why would people prefer my keke model rather than existing models?

Is it going to be cheaper, more energy or fuel efficient with more mileage per gallon?

Can the materials used for the body work withstand the harsh terrain and weather we have?

Are spares going to be readily available?

Just a few questions to think about.

I don't have it anymore..it's been long...but I still have in my head...it's a simple reservoir design about 30-40m high..just that the discharge outlet will be located about 10m such that at all times the reservoir has water in that 10m line strictly for fire fighting purpose and gives room for proper sedimentation as well

Thanks bro that's actually a good advice I will think about it more.I really appreciate your effort

Sook cause u draw keke for ontop system make dem pack money give u.

If i draw plane say i fit ask for money too

I designed a keke napep I got a bank interested in buying 30 pieces but they want to see a prototype to know am capable of building it I know all the materials required to build it.i can build it.but I don't have funds to build it.i met a lot of rich people to invest or give me loan but they don't want to support me why is that? am tired and frustrated.

bro, I have actually built a keke that is functional and like that of tvs or Bajaj.... There is nothing innovative or different from this prototype and what is in circulation....

What are you gonna do differently from what's in circulation?
Tell me then we can know how to proceed

God, my helpers must not rest till they locate me o!

Thats the prayer point bro. Use bible references o.

There's nothing groundbreaking in designing a keke. Why will your rich friends put money in your design when it'll be easier to go across town and buy ready made from TVS ? You'll still need an assembly plant that can churn out thousands of the required parts per day. You'll need to order mechanical parts from India or China, don't forget marketing etc. It takes a whole lot of money, these people aren't making such type of money like that in today's Nigeria and even if they are, they have to surely wait till a new government and hopefully, that one will be business friendly.

I'll suggest you apply for admission abroad focusing on vehicle designs, when you get the admission then you can do round your rich friends either for scholarships (which you can still apply for) of flight tickets. Then they'll want to help you because they've already seen you have an interest there. Bear in mind, kekes were a temporary measure by Buba Marwa as then Lagos military administrator to mitigate traffic problems in the state, it wasn't supposed to be permanent. Maybe you can design a hydrogen powered duopod vehicle for us when you get back

You tried but keke is something that already exists here in Nigeria, if you want to innovate something then be creative and innovative something new, not modifying something that already exists.

You just posted a modified picture of the average kekenape we see on a daily basis, nothing special.

The bitter truth is that you are not inventing something new you are only recreating it, and so nothing special (business-wise) if you want investors to come in for mass production, you have to demonstrate the capacity to do so by producing at least 5 functioning one at a possible lower cost than the usual cost. If not an investor can easily go to the giant manufacturer that already has a wider market and invest in their business.

Nice craft/hand work, I pray you get the support you need. to develop.

Why is the front wheel supported with only one strut? You clearly don't understand much about engineering mechanics.

Op you are just trying to reinvent the wheel,however, there is still room for improvement. Try something different instead of taking a coal to a new castle. Try bicycle modelling, bring new and exciting features to it and you will break new grounds, afterwards, gift me one because I am in dire of it , I don too trek go lectures
Good luck.

Design alone is not enough, you need to start building a prototype.

During the tenure of the great thief known as Mr. Magnus Kpakol former Coordinator of National Poverty Eradication Program, he bought plenty of keke with your type of design at grossly inflated prices. They are all damaged today.

Design a rear compartment that you can attach to a delivery bike that allows it carry load as large as a freezer. Make it really nice with rear brake lights and all.
People will buy that and courier companies will patronise you instead of providing a redesigned keke.

it's not just about the design you need to consider alot of factors for the design to work. Do a 3D design, design the Engine, Run it in a simulation calculate the Top speed , The balance e.t.c then you'll know if your design works. You can't just draw random vehicle and say I designed so so thing.

Of course you aren’t expecting anything new, the engine and gear component’s will definitely be sourced from a third party from China. Even Innoson haven’t gotten to the stage of mounding it’s own Engine bloc

Offers limited protection for the passengers and driver as they can fall out. If your invention abi na modification going to be cheaper than what is obtainable now If it using solar , fuel or electricity
