The chassis of the Venere electric limousine is made of a composite material which is basically a sandwich of carbon fibre and honeycomb, to meet the torsional and bending stiffness needed by the high performance and the total weight. The frame is manufactured integrally by using the roof as a collaborative structural component. It is the first four-door four-seater with such characteristics. This central element is joined by aluminum chassis supports that are attached to the front and rear powertrain.
