The winners of the 19th anniversary American Iron and Animate Institute Summer Automotive Architecture Internship Accident were afresh announced. Three pairs of architecture and engineering acceptance from the College for Creative Studies and the University of Michigan were appear as the winners. This year's staging of the accident focused on the affair "Inside Out". The winners all came up with cars advised to advertise the backbone of the exoteric apparatus of their vehicles.

Ron Krupitzer, the Vice President for Automotive Applications at AISI, has this to say: "Inspiration comes in abounding forms, and anniversary of these models prove that abundant things can appear with car architecture by accumulation avant-garde animate and assurance technologies. Together the CCS and UM acceptance collaborated on absolute apple automotive challenges, developing three aggressively styled models, anniversary on a audible engineering platform."
The aboriginal of the three abstraction cars declared as winners is the Dodge Dendro advised by Nicola Ren Stone and engineered by Alok Pradhan. The said abstraction car is alleged afterwards the atramentous mamba - the "Dendroaspis polylepis", the fastest and the a lot of antagonistic snake in the world. That is because Stone got the afflatus for the Dodge Dendro from snakes.
"I advised an exoskeleton anatomy to enclose the occupants in a triangle shape. This different appearance accustomed for the absence of a archetypal B-pillar, acceptance the foreground barbecue to serve as an built-in allotment of the structure, rather than as decoration," explained Stone. "The bumpers are affiliated through a continued vertical anatomy that campaign the breadth of the car through the interior. This anchors the structure, while accouterment acerbity to the rear ‘tail bone,’ which aswell serves as the trunk. Together with my engineering accomplice Alok, we accepted that this proposed architecture not alone met automotive assurance requirements, but exceeded them."

"For the anatomy design, I accumulated the backbone of exoskeletons with the adaptability of a animal that appears to accept no skeleton, the snake. Able to angle its physique into about any position was a absolute acclaim to animate technology currently getting developed for aeroplane wings." Stone aswell said that they chose to accomplish the Dendro into a Dodge because "Dodge creates the consequence of backbone on the road, with a appearance and attitude that is unmistakable." A Dodge AC compressor would absolutely not attending out of abode in the Dendro.
The additional abstraction car was advised by Tyler Mars and engineered by Zoheb Kahn. The abstraction is alleged as the Jeep Roanoke. According to Mars, the car "is aggressive by the actual dark, alarming affair of artwork by H.R. Giger, and by the actual unique, raw attending of Jeep itself."
Just like the Dendro, the Roanoke is aswell advised to accommodate accord of apperception for is occupants back its exoteric is advised to assure the occupants of the vehicle. The third abstraction car is the Pontiac Hematon advised by Timothy O'Donnell and engineered by Jennifer Hoskins. According to O'Donnell, "The Hematon is aggressive by the apparent anatomy and chip physique locations apparent on action bikes. By blame the anatomy out to the apparent of the body, it becomes a arresting abating admonition to the disciplinarian that there is a structurally sound, high-strength animate exoskeleton attention them at all times."
