A safe, high performance urban
vehicle:
Obvio!´s vehicles will
meet or exceed all USA D.O.T safety standards, all European
Community Standards, and all Japan and China safety standards.
The Obvio !´s Monocoque chassis is bonded together with the body
shell high-protection structure in a special process of reinforced
composites in RTM Light – Resin Transfer Molding. The internal and
external panels are in special high-tech Bio-Plastic from GE
Plastics and delivers an “A” class finishing.
The body shell and integrated chassis form a high strength monocoque
structure, providing full passenger protection in rollovers, front,
rear, and side impacts.
Single piece, bonded construction yields high torsion and flexional
stiffness, providing a solid body with superior handling.
The “Niess Elliptical Survival Rings” allow the Monocoque chassis to
function as a passenger safety cell, designed to distribute any
impact throughout the vehicle’s structure. These elliptical survival
rings are based on technology developed and patented by the
Aeronautical Engineer Mr. Marc William Niess, who was acquired by
Obvio !.
There will also be a left-hand drive version available (steering
wheel on the right side). Power steering? Not necessary on a vehicle
this light.
All our key-suppliers are large, established companies, including
MVC-Marcopolo - www.mvc-marcopolo.com.br - from the parent company
Marcopolo - the world’s second largest bus factory (
www.marcopolo.com.br ) – specializing in the development of
innovative solutions in plastics, using fully automated, high tech
processes.
Aerodynamic analysis in the wind tunnel allowed us to design the
chassis for optimum engine ventilation, wind resistance, and ground
effect;
Obvio ! 012 key-tech specs:
•The metal chassis is
bonded to the composite superstructure, meaning the chassis enters
the "RTM Light" forms (Resin Transfer Molding Light) during
manufacture, forming one solid piece with the superstructure and
passenger safety cell
• The integrated structure means the chassis doesn’t have “the
hump”, or central channel. This leaves a nice, smooth floor with
ample legroom and a clean interior look. Essentially the front seat
is like a comfy sofa, or if you prefer, think of it as a throwback
to bench seats
•The gearshift is located on your left, between the door and the
seat, with the electronic six speed “manual gearbox style” control
integrated in the steering wheel;
• Rear wheel drive with mid-mount engine
• Detachable "Boblbee" backpacks are part of the interior design;
Options:
A/C, bucket seats, power
windows/mirrors/power locks, and leather.
