The LifeDrive concept consists of two horizontally separated, independent modules. The Drive module—the aluminum chassis—integrates the battery, drive system and structural and crash functions into a single construction. It will be the world’s first volume-produced vehicle with a passenger cell made from carbon.

The PHEV does not require the heavy, costly batteries required by other electric cars, nor does it suffer from a limited range or poor freeway performance. It is alarming to see comparisons of the Chevrolet Volt PHEV with battery electric cars when the comparison focuses only on the electric range and ignores the other important differences.
