The grille is blanked off and there’s a small air inlet at the front for cooling off the battery pack and electricals.

It comes with 13-inch aerodynamically designed wheels and a door on either side. The lower portion of the EV has an aggressive cut which looks as if the body has been divided into two segments. There’s a solar panel on the roof which enables the EV to be charged via solar energy.

The rear design is simpler and carries the dual-tone design as the side with an LED tail light strip between the two colours at the rear. 

Interior

Inside, it gets two seats which are placed one behind the other. It comes with two displays on the dashboard, one for the instrumentation and the other for the touchscreen. The steering wheel has a 2-spoke design. Below the touchscreen are the controls for manual AC. Other than this, everything else is basic in the cabin including the door handles and storage spaces.

Even though it is a basic EV, it gets features like dual digital displays (as mentioned above), a 6-way electrically adjustable driver’s seat and a fixed glass roof. On the safety front, it gets an airbag for the driver and 3-point seatbelts for both occupants.
