Measurements

... in inches:





Notes on these measurements...
  • The 17.0 inches measurement from the ground up will depend on the Metro's ride height.
  • 6.5 degrees on the bottom is the final angle. It actually starts at around 4 degrees and curves to up 6.5 at the end.
  • The 62.5 inches side measurement is from the forward-most part of the arc/recess in the bodywork that houses the tail light
  • The 23.75 inches top measurement is the length of the Kammback, starting at the end of the "roof line" on the hatchback. The rest is cardboard.
