A sophisticated system of sensors throughout the car was developed by the Universities of Zurich and Innsbruck and a new 3D-formable electroluminescent film has been developed by Bayer MaterialScience and the Swiss electronics specialist Lumitec. This electroluminescent film uses biometric data and other information to create an appropriate level of light for the driver.

The environmentally-friendly Senso runs on CO2-reducing natural gas, puts the central focus on the driver as an individual and appeals to the emotions thanks to its unusual design. It also features an innovative outer skin coating.

Interestingly, the car is a genuine three-seater, with the driver sitting in a central and forward position, similar to a racing car. The two passenger seats are side-by-side, just behind the driver.

No mention has yet been made of the Senso powerplent other than that it runs on natural gas and petrol.

More details as they become available.
