The discussion I heard before was that it was a low-end Chinese production car, with leather seats and flashy electronics to distract from the sub-econobox material quality. The description above seems to confirm that.

The floorpan must be a from-scratch design to support the under-seat and in-spine battery layout (compare to the spine-only 'T' battery layout in the Volt), but the body appears very similar to the gas version. I wonder about the interior volume, especially headroom.
