The MiraQua concept car is everything you have ever wanted an electric car to be. That may be a lofty statement, but I believe that Chaoyi Li's little electric car has the stuff needed to dethrone its much larger and less fuel-efficient competition.
For starters, the MiraQua concept car addresses the interior size issue plaguing many all-electric cars. The MiraQua is designed with a roomy interior designed to fit three comfortably. The whole back portion of the MiraQua actually opens up to make it easier for the rear passenger to enter and exit the car.
Li's MiraQua concept car is also a lot more stylish than past electric rides. The green and blue tinted windshields are an intentional feature designed to make a bunch of MiraQuas on the road look like a body of water. Eco-friendly and eye-pleasing designs like this could sway public opinion away from bulkier hybrid cars and onto smaller all-electric rides like the MiraQua.
