Okay, I got an answer back on the front suspension:

We really appreciate your interest in our vehicle and specifically the front suspension. We are not yet releasing details, but in due time, we will be sure to let you know of the specifics. It may be a bit obvious, but we do want to confirm that the suspension fits entirely inside of the wheel.

So, my guess is the trailing arm and spring/shock are at the outer end of the tube/strut, and they are tucked inside the wheel; which is why we cannot see them.
On the weight, remember that the original VW 1L car was 660 pounds, and it had carbon fiber, titanium, magnesium, drilled out bolts. It also had a single cylinder diesel, a 6-speed dual clutch transmission, side view video cameras -- it was unobtanium!
