Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Modeling with lattice

Hi i modeled a futuristic car with a lattice but when i try to move or rotate the car it becomes deformed.I tries to parent the lattices under the car but it does the same thing.Any ideas?

if you're done with the lattice, delete the object's history to remove the lattice and bake in its effect.

If you have to keep it, in your outliner, you'll see that when you created the lattice it also created a 2nd object called the lattice base. Group the lattice, lattice base, and object together to move them as a unit.
