A safe, high performance urban vehicle:
Obvios vehicles will meet or exceed all USA D.O.T safety standards, all European Community Standards, and all Japan and China safety standards.
The Obvios Monocoque chassis is bonded together with the body shell high-protection structure in a special process of reinforced composites in RTM Light – Resin Transfer Molding. The internal and external panels are in special high-tech Bio-Plastic from GE Plastics and delivers an “A” class finishing.
The body shell and integrated chassis form a high strength monocoque structure, providing full passenger protection in rollovers, front, rear, and side impacts. Single piece, bonded construction yields high torsion and flexional stiffness, providing a solid body with superior handling.
The “Niess Elliptical Survival Rings” allow the Monocoque chassis to function as a passenger safety cell, designed to distribute any impact throughout the vehicle’s structure. These elliptical survival rings are based on technology developed and patented by the Aeronautical Engineer Mr. Marc William Niess, who was acquired by Obvio !
Acessories and iMobile carputer:
A/C, bucket seats, power windows/mirrors/power locks, and leather.
iMobile Carputer: Gives you one display with live vehicle diagnostic and maintenance tools, voice assisted turn-by-turn navigation, integrated organizer with mobile device sync ability, a mobile media center incorporating features normally expected from a home theater system*, web connectivity, emergency services, and safety features such as a rear view monitoring camera….an Obvio! experience like no other.
