It sports a steel chassis, composite glass-reinforced plastic body, four-spoke aluminum steering wheel, 12-inch steel wheels with pneumonic tires, and a hand-stitched leather interior. It is fitted with a 43-cc engine, powering the car to speeds of up to 15 mph, and a centrifugal clutch, opening bonnet and boot, and working headlights.
