It's painted in yellow.

Is it to make it more visible when stopped on the emergency lane?

Maybe this is the answer to the "Top Gear" suggestion the other week for motor manufacturers to start making more attractive motorised wheelchairs. At my age this may be a godsend!

I do like the little "pulse" design in the stitching on the interior... and I do spot a BMW steering column/stalk. While not a big fan of E-vehicles, it is nice to see one that looks so sexy!

I must say that I like the colour scheme even though bright coloured cars are not normally my thing. The dash and the chrome instruments bezels, dark blue faces and panels that match the seats all looks good. (reminds me of the orange car that has orange faces on the instruments and shows how much better that could have been done)

The seats look particularly good and look as though they would be comfortable. A torneau would have to have "humps" to accommodate the built-in head rests.

All in all it looks a nice package but I agree the environmental cost of battery powered cars is much higher the the green fanatic brigade would have us believe, however it may be justified for cities with very high pollution levels such as Milan.

Nice seats. NOT a car that would want to make me lift the bonnet though!

I would tell everyone that under the bonnet is where the flux capacitor is located, for time travel of course.
