Trexa EV development platform is modular, extremely customizable

You know how you’ve been telling all your friends that, if you had the chance, you’d totally design the perfect electric vehicle? Well, here is that treasured opportunity.

That means customizable acceleration, suspension, torque and top speed, as well as the predictable versatility in outward appearance. In truth, it is really just aimed as a test mule for more professionally inclined (and presumably funded) EV designers, but we can’t help but admire the simple genius of it all.
