Archie Mendes is only 12 years old but he’s studied at the Sorbonne University in Paris for two years. He’s just helped some engineers to design a new car which goes on land and on water.

I think the new car has been designed because the author writes “he’s helped...”. That is to say, “to design a new car” here refers to a result, not a purpose. What do you think of my understanding? Is it correct?
