Emergency Aid Challenge.
A new strain of zombie - coronavirus has appeared, which has merged with the rabies virus.
The government of some country has decided to issue a state order for car manufacturers in their country for special transport, which is an ambulance bus.
The point is this: in case of pandemics, the citizens of this country must have a suitable vehicle for the emergency transportation of doctors and patients.
This transport will be distributed throughout the cities and will be stored in appropriate conditions.
If necessary, it can be exported to other countries as a finished project.
In this case, according to the government’s preventive strategy, it is necessary to build a minibus, which will carry specially equipped doctors one way, and take patients to the specially built medical camps.
Especially for this, they allocated a strip where no one had to drive, and if necessary, they had permission to drive through the intersection in a special order.
The vehicle must be a minimum of 8 seats and a maximum of 17 seats.
It is also allowed to use the body of a truck, the cargo area of which can be covered with a tent if necessary. In this case, the number of seats is limited to 22 seats.
And the chairs must be not usual but allow to fix well the position of the body for paralyzed patients. And the same chairs will be used by the doctors going on a mission to a certain block.
Clearance should be moderately urban and should allow to pass on a small off-road.
The car should cost no more than $80,000 + $10,000 reserved for medical equipment = $90,000. The cheaper the better, the more cars the state will be able to purchase.
Also, the car should contain at least one large box with medical tools and supplies that can be conveniently and quickly reach. The machine should not break down often, which means it should be reliable. It should be easy and quick to service and not require high intensive labor to repair.
It should be loadable and have adjustable suspension.
