NILS by Volkswagen.



Volkswagen:
Volkswagen is outlining its vision for personal urban mobility with its one-seat electric car concept for this month's Frankfurt motor show.
Dubbed as the "NILS",the  concept is said to be “anything but a dry-run exercise” and is a “very realistic proposition” for a commuter car in 2030.
Volkswagen:
The NILS is based around a Formula 1-style layout (driver in middle, powertrain in rear) and an aluminium spaceframe that contributes to a weight of just 460kg. A one-seat layout was chosen by VW because according to them, almost 90 per cent of commuters who travel by car do so without any passengers.Will the NILS see production?No official news as to when this will take place,but VW seems very keen to do so.
