Is it possible to build a production electric passenger car in under a year.?

Here are the key ingredients.

Design Bodywork>

Too expensive to hire Pininfarina. That would cost millions... So, we will take a pretty car from the world of gaming, with full files in .3DS & try to convert the file to Solid works....3ds designs usually cost about USD100 to buy.

Design Chassis. >

There is plenty of information about street legal chassis available. Lets take the basic info & design chassis to fit the body.

Keep it Simple >

It has to be all electric & let add a twist & use in wheel hub motors.. This means we do not need many complex parts & we can keep the weight low & reduce complexity.

Keep it Light >

Weight is critical !. Power requires has a direct relationship to weight. Less weight = less power required = less batteries & smaller motors = LESS WEIGHT. A virtuous circle.

Deign for mass production >

If any process can not be done in mass production, do not do it in the prototype.

Stick by the project aims >

No deviation from the stated project aims.
