Curve C-ZEN: A small electric vehicle and seriously fun
The model that most resembles a real car, and one of the most advanced visible on the Green Pavilion at Geneva, is certainly the curved C-ZEN. Started in 2001 and obviously inspired by the beautiful concept M72 presented a year before by Matra at the Paris, the project conducted by a team of Lyon had already been presented at the Paris in 2008 and Geneva in 2009. Almost final version of C-ZEN is today the world premiere in Geneva.
C-ZEN (Zero as harmful emissions) is a heavy motor quadricycle (B1 license at the age of 16 years) with two seats by 3.43 meters long with a mass not exceeding 500 kg (without battery) thanks an all-aluminum frame.
