No less interestingly, the ability to travel with a car full of diesel fuel tank (25 liters), plus the battery was 690 kms. For the battery itself, the distance could be reached for 50 kms. The car was also equipped with brake energy regeneration (BER) or it was widely known in general by KERS.

Lights. This section used an innovative lightweight materials technology in the interior. That was, among others, head-up display (HUD) in three dimensions. The roof and glass doors were made from polycarbonate in which it automatically became darker when the light hit highlight.
