The design also locates the battery in the floor of the vehicle, which would allow infinite possibilities in terms of seating arrangements. Volkswagen’s land of fantasy sure looks and sounds good, let’s see how the concept will do with the harsh reality of limited range and safety ratings.
yeah, those darn safety ratings. No chance there would ever be bench-style seating in anything other than a Limo, which completely skirt safety regulations.
The best thing about this concept is that neat little below-battery-false floor trunk space. That'd be swell for keeping the safety/emerg kits out of sight whereas the normal trunk could be completely empty at all other times.
That said, insurers will flip the fack out when they see how expensive minor rear-enders will cost to repair.
