You will see no external door handles like in the picture above. As the car has no roof, there is a toneau cover that can be a coating for the interior or only for the passenger side if the weather is rainy.
The 41 horsepower electirc motor from the Forspeed can run for 37 miles per hour in only 5.5 seconds, and reach the top speed of 75 mph. It is not a speedy car, but the boost button that you see on the dash will be able to offer seven ponies.
