The Rinspeed UC? Concept: ???

Rinspeed UC conceptSo, this is the Rinspeed UC? concept — and no, that question mark is not a typo. Yes, it throws me for a bit of a loop as well, but hey, the Swiss are full of surprises … sort of.

But anyway, obviously, Rinspeed is a Swiss automaker. The company plans to unveil what is classified as a whole mobility concept in March of 2010, at the annual motor show in Geneva.

That will, of course, be the Rinspeed UC? concept. “UC?” is actually an acronym, for the words “Urban Commuter.” However, it can be interpreted literally as well — as the phrase, “You see?” Pretty clever, no?

The concept is a two seater with an electric motor; in the future, it may be a series.

The small, speedy vehicle is only two and a half meters long. It is extremely lightweight and supposedly able to go as fast as one hundred and ten kilometers per hour.
