Unique Properties

SAIC s brand MG was challenged with a new market rollout and needed a custom HMI solution to support this strategic initiative. The design embraces new technology trends centered around connectivity digital touchpoints and smart assistants with an intuitive interface that strengthens consumers' emotional relationships with both the vehicle and the MG brand.

Dimensions & Packaging

Star s approach ensured that the UX flows were finalized and validated mid project so that the UI kit was ready for engineers to implement and develop. New MG cars equipped with our new HMI solution are now on the road in India and Thailand.

Production Technology

We began by understanding market trends and competitors. Then we conducted on site ideation to understand the customer journey and quickly prototype core interaction frameworks. Equipped with three interaction concepts we joined forces with SAIC s innovation team to work on the visual design. Together we produced six different design directions tested these internally and selected three finalists. SAIC selected a final design direction and our team developed a detailed visual and motion design.

Inspiration

Everything we do here at Star is human centered. We wanted to create an HMI that was not only functional and beautiful but user friendly and seamless. We dug in and hosted numerous creative and research sessions both with the SAIC team and MG customers in respective markets to learn about their needs what engages them and gather data points that empowered our design process to be user-focused from its inception.
