The vehicle is a battery powered electric car, but the appearance doesn’t fit into what we typically see in electric models. It is a beast.

The Seven certainly has a nostalgic twist, with an extended back end and a painted matte finish. Think along the lines of an early to mid 1900s Batmobile.

The length of the Seven is equivalent to a full sized pickup truck. The width is a little different, measuring up to par with that of a Toyota Prius.

The simple interior is all about functionality with grey felt covering the dash and cockpit. Modern gadgets include climate control and a radio, and a dial to select drive or reverse.

When the gullwing doors open up, you can see the front and rear seats are positioned back to back, each with their own set of cupholders. The Seven’s electric battery gets the equivalent of over 200 miles per gallon, and similarly has a range of approximately 200 miles.

It has a verified top speed of 130 miles per hour, although the inventors say it could theoretically reach 225 miles per hour. Would you like to own this electric vehicle?
