Additionally, an expandable chassis provides outstanding passenger and cargo access. The vehicle is being designed to offer advanced connectivity technology with an estimated 160 km range at up to 140km/hour, with more protection than a motorcycle in an interchangeable multi-body, multi-function platform.
