Oh, just another awesome concept derived from a collab between a French architect and a car manufacturer. And despite its resemblance to something obvious, this is not a Mini. Wait for it…it’s a Toyota.
French architect Jean-Marie Massaud and Toyota are proud to present the ME.WE electric car and as has come to be expected, it’s all about the human, the environment and the good.
It’s made out of a tubular aluminium structure and has interchangeable expanded polypropylene body panels. That’s doors, wings and bumpers that come off and can be put back on. Imagine the number of colour combinations they’ll offer.
Each wheel has its own dedicated electric motor meaning it’s technically 4WD but can be operated in 2WD.
The floor and the roof are made from bamboo, and the occupants take precedence with any luggage carried on the bamboo roof covered by a neoprene housing. The back bench can also be removed in the case of a seat being needed while at the beach.
