"The aerodynamic shape should give performance improvements of around 35% and save fuel as well! The structure is a monocoque (ie. the structural frame is on the outside) made from carbon fivre composite and honeycomb It is light in weight and very strong. The outsude structure will protect the occupant during an accident" - TECA TECH
