Yeah. The initial price is high, but they aim for €50,000 in 2023 assuming a yearly production of 100,000.
The whole point of the car is the drive for efficiency without compromises.
No cheap solar cells but expensive ones to get that 50% extra power.
No back window to enhance the space available for solar cells. Cameras should do.
No drive train and linkages but hub motors; if the latter cause problems they need to be sought out and fixed, not avoided by taking a less efficient approach.
It ends up as a 5 seater EV with a range of 465 miles at night, and more by day.
It has a lot of trunk space and probably also quite some frunk space.
As a concept it is all right. If they can iron out all potential problems and really make it lo large scale production then it could go big.
