Dagens bilar är uråldriga och har i princip tillverkats på samma vis i 30 år. Det anser i alla fall grundarna till den nya svenska elbilen Uniti. Deras bil kommer nämligen att vända upp och ner på elbilsmarknaden och skilja sig från allt annat vi sett tidigare.
Man säger sig ha en prototyp på gång som väntas bli klar i slutet på 2017. Den är tvåsitsig, går endast på el och har ett batteri på 15 kWh. Räckvidden vid normal stadskörning anges till 15 mil. Målet är att skapa en hållbar bil så därför är bland annat materialen i kupén hampa och biokompositer med linfiber.

New Swedish electric city car to challenge the global automotive industry
The social, environmental and economic consequences of the automotive industry are part of the motivation for the development of an ingenious and unique electric city car, Uniti. With a philosophy that challenges current business practices, the usage of fossil fuels, and 'old mechanics', as well as questioning the entire logic of city mobility, Uniti relies instead on a balance of advanced technology and human-centric design. The global team, headquartered in Sweden, believes Uniti is a serious contender for a much needed disruption in the automotive industry. "It is time for a more futuristic and less destructive driving experience", says Uniti co-founder Lewis Horne, arguing that current design norms are outdated and excessively 'plastic'.
Recent events in the automotive industry highlight the need for more openness, transparency and trust, which is why the team has opted to make the design and development process is open and patent-free from the beginning. They hope this will encourage additional market entrants, to accelerate the emergence of more sustainable vehicles.
An intensive study is underway at Lund University to determine the most efficient vehicle configuration, production methods and materials. This in-depth analysis is intended to challenge any assumptions currently restricting city mobility. The prototype under development at Lund University's 'ProLab' is a 15kW electric city car designed for high performance in an urban environment, That is vastly more sustainable not just in terms of the energy source, but of the product itself throughout its life cycle. Uniti will be a two-seater vehicle, with one seat behind the other, and a spacious interior with a distinctly 'sci-fi' feeling. The materials used, such as hemp and flax fiber biocomposites, will maintain a premium feeling with an organic nature.
The open design and development process for Uniti is unconventional. Instead of starting with the accepted configuration of cars and building from there, the team has opted for a new beginning. This has resulted in a very progressive design, matching contemporary user interaction and the expectations of modern technology enthusiasts.
The recent release of their launch video highlights their purpose ambitious and radical strategy.
