Electric ?

el_monty · « **Reply #12 on:** July 31, 2017, 10:54:15 AM »

Apparently both ICE and electric versions were planned, though details on the latter are sketchy at best.

Was it unveiled after 2010 ?

el_monty · « **Reply #14 on:** July 31, 2017, 03:19:27 PM »

The car was first unveiled as a prototype earlier than 2010. However, it spent some years in limbo and most of the articles about it that can be found online are from after 2010, when it seemed that it was coming close to production.

Was it unveiled after 2005 ?

el_monty · « **Reply #16 on:** July 31, 2017, 04:19:01 PM »

It was presented precisely on 2005

Is the ICE engine smaller than 1000 cc ?

el_monty · « **Reply #18 on:** August 01, 2017, 03:02:55 AM »

Yes, smaller

oko94 · « **Reply #19 on:** August 01, 2017, 03:47:54 AM »

Smaller than 500 cc ?

el_monty · « **Reply #20 on:** August 01, 2017, 04:31:08 AM »

Probably. ~~I haven't been able to find the actual size of the engine~~, but I know it was supposed to come from a motorcycle, and not a specially powerful one. At first, one engine supplier was announced, and later a different one, both motorcycle manufacturers.

EDIT: Found it. Smaller than 500 cc, though not by much

Was the puzzle photo shot at a car show in Spain ?

el_monty · « **Reply #22 on:** August 01, 2017, 04:53:17 AM »

No. It comes from a presentation of the car to the press and to Spanish authorities, which took place in the factory that was supposed to produce it.

oko94 · « **Reply #23 on:** August 01, 2017, 07:48:08 AM »

Was the factory located North of Madrid ?

el_monty · « **Reply #24 on:** August 01, 2017, 07:58:50 AM »

There were three different places announced for the location of the factory, at different points in time. The first two were North of Madrid and the third one was South of Madrid. If I'm not mistaken, this photo was taken at the third location.
