Impressive, and the guy has got rolling hardware !

It could still use some ecomodding to get it to 2.5L/100km

Visibility is going to be a serious issue though.

Yes aero is not the best, but that cars main goal was to design carbon fiber monocoque for his master thesis... Not so much about the aerodynamics. Anyway car is driveable consept car which is always huge effort for anyone.

No he studied one level higher studies than I did. If I want to study even further that is the school I have to go in Finland if I want to learn more about stuff. I want to know who sponsored that project, because it have taken few euros to finish fully working consept car. Also in some pictures he has eu plates on which could mean that it is registered also. If so even bigger WOW.
