Additional navigation systems are the so-called environmentally friendly. The system can determine the most economical route to the realistic 3D view.

Pieces coated with wool. Result, the interior invites admirable as it appear unique and exclusive. Passenger seat can be removed and dimundurkan. Teksil also be used to cover the surface of the trunk floor.

In this way, hope Rinspeed, while the exhibition lasts peminat can encompass, especially those who want to be different!
