This fall is scheduled to market the “fast car”. Although the development has been done in a very hidden way, more and more things are being published about this new concept of car. This car, born with urban vocation, will have two seats and a length of 2.5 m.

The car is completely modular. Therefore, in addition to having many versions, the user will be able to modify many elements of the car with the “special kits” that the manufacturer will offer. The elements that can be modified include seats, covers, dashboard elements and even the cabin itself.

Powered by Dalimler-Benz and SGMU, the MCC company is producing car. The production system also stands out. There will be 750 cars per day at the Hambach plant (Lorraine). Instead of forming cars piece by piece, five modules will be mounted, with the car in less than five hours. MCC suppliers carry modules such as the cab or motor mounted to their assembly chain. Therefore, MCC is limited to joining modules. In addition, in order to reduce transport costs, MCC suppliers have put their workshops around Hambach.
