From the jury rapport of the iF Design Awards 2022: “A scalable, sustainable solution for cities transitioning to net-zero. Innovations like a single piece of curved composite framing not only cut weight but create a more open, inviting interior. Developed alongside the most important drivers associations, the driver cabin also sets new standards for ergonomics, steering adjustments and dashboard space.”
