At this year's Geneva Motor Show 2010, EDAG, the independent concepts development company will present the next step in the evolution of its extremely innovative concept car, the EDAG Light Car - Open Source. Premiered at the same auto occasion last year, the novel lighting concept represents an independent design concept for the electric-powered car of the future.

New and remarkable for this year's revised EDAG Light Car is its space frame structure, a true state-of-the-art element which utilizes the latest approaches in the lightweight technology and materials.

"With the idea of uniting specific technologies provided by specialists in a vehicle that was quite independent of any car manufacturer, it was our intention to create a technology carrier that would show what could be done now and in the future in electric car concepts, explains EDAG CEO, Jorg Ohlsen. With this approach, we can also effectively demonstrate the integrator function we have as complete vehicle developers. We achieve the integration of various technologies in a fully functioning vehicle concept that satisfies all legal and customer-specific requirements."

Boasting unusual exterior styling, adjustable lighting elements and a space frame structure specially designed for electric drive vehicles, the EDAG Light Car - Open Source is one possible solution for an independent electric car designed for potential low volume production.
