The Rinspeed iChange concept at the Geneva Motor Show

  • Rumored as the world’s first car with a body adapting to the number of passengers on board thanks to a magical rear end.
  • “In seconds a streamlined one-seater sports car transforms into a comfortable car with ample room for three. The trick: At the push of a button the rear end of the teardrop-shaped car magically pops up.
  • iChange is powered by an electric motor mated to lithium-ion batteries available in two different stack configurations, one for short- and one for long-distance. Both choices will apparently be charged by any electric power source including solar.
  • The motor produces 150kW, giving the car a top speed of 220 km/h (137 MPH) and a 0-to-100 km/h (0-to-62 MPH) time of slightly more than four seconds thanks to a six-speed gearbox borrowed from the Subaru WRX
