Wow, a Car for the Future!

Hi Guys,
I came across this car while checking out what's new in the 'three wheeler' scene. It looks that these guys are serious and we will see production shortly. The $30K price tag is a little steep for a small car but I think it will sell with the technology being incorporated.

PS: Thought this would look very well outside my DomeHome (Pet Project ) Now how to go about modeling it

I don't know if you ever looked into this car further. I did. Apparently (as of last fall) the car is only available in California. I asked about potential marketing in colder region (northern Alberta) to which they replied <<not at this time>> Though in a follow up letter, they informed me that they were going to begin testing for it but not to expect results for a couple of years. Another catch for marketing in Canada is that first there's the federal red tape, and plenty of it, and once that's accomplished, each province and territory has to approve it for themselves. A company based out of Quebec has been building electric cars for about a decade now and their sole market has been the US. About a year ago, they finally allowed them to market it in Canada. Now they have to convince each province, etc. Only British-Columbia has allowed it so far.
And here we wait ... patiently.
Were you able to render it??
