The chassis also features aluminum front and rear subframes. a lightweight composite body, butterfly doors and four wheel steering with 5 degrees of steering angle.[3] The interior features configurable seating which can be changed from a 2+2 to a 3+1 arrangement as well as multiple touchscreens to control interior functions.[1]
