the back seats are where it’s at.
a cocoon-like private space, for you.
no more eating lunch in the driver seat, with a steering wheel in your lap, a phone in one hand, a burger in the other, fries spread across the passenger seat and passer-bys gawking at the show.

work, play, learn, longe
a “user-centric” vehicle means that the rear seats are the star of the show.
..
a multi-functional space.
..
a large folding table, a large screen and 3 reclining seats
For interior space optimization; we’re developing standing front seats.
The use of a standing seat design opens up the rear area by 40%.
It also minimizes the amount of required movement to get in or out of the seat.

This is our exterior design concept.
It is a tall vehicle to get the most useful interior volume, but short in length so it doesn’t feel intimidating and overbearing. Its unique proportions set it apart from the average van, mini-van or SUV.
The space is open and designed to maximize the interior volume.
By diverging from the current norm of floor batteries and locating the battery pack between the rear wheels; we’re able to create a vehicle with an extremely low floor. . . so low, in fact; that if you were parked next to a sidewalk; you’d be able to just walk… or roll… right in.
A large sliding door on each side of the vehicle makes entry in tight areas a breeze.
And although the vehicle is tall; it has a short wheelbase, low overhangs and 4 wheel steering; which will make the vehicle easy to see out of and maneuver; even in tight neighborhoods.
Air-ride adjustable suspension to handle those occasional speed bumps and to allow the vehicle to level-out if parked on a sloped street - keeping the interior flat and comfortable in almost any parking scenario.
You simply walk right in.
