The categorization of not to be qualified as a regular four-wheel passenger car is used so it does not have to meet NCAP standards, which is expensive (adds weight to begin with). That will put most people off from considering buying or using the Ulive, at least outside the city. Interesting is that Airbus is mentioned as partner on their website. If there is one thing that has been proved thus far, it is that there’s no life for a company that wants to startup new cars outside the established car brands, unless you are state-sponsored like the Chinese, or you happen to be first to a ‘bigger game’, like Tesla due to Elon Musk’s impressive rolodex. So many have tried: Arcimoto, Sono Motors, Aptera, Bolloré, eGo, to mention a few.
