Here's some pictures:



I drove it today, briefly -- it is hard to make it really coast even when you manage to get the needle into the "neutral" zone between economy and regen. I didn't try it in the neutral position on the "shifter" but I'm sure it would actually coast...

The front wheels are 145/65/15 and the rears are 175/60/15. The underside is okay in the middle, but there are large recesses along the rocker panels, and around the front suspension and the drivetrain in the rear. The tires are Dunlops; probably similar to Ecopia, with 51PSI sidewall max.
