XBus - Is it a flatbed, campervan, car or van?

The Xbus has 9 modules that can turn into any vehicle you want. With exchangeable batteries (can also add additional batteries) and 2 versions (Off Road and Standard) costing from £17,500 up to £31,000 you build the vehicle you want. 200 mile range and charges using a 13amp plug.

I'm so old fashioned, outside work I'm either in the 15th or 19th centuries! (Medieval or steampunk, which is best?)

Apparently you can add batteries to extend the range up to 360 miles and there are solar panels on the roof to charge the batteries [Like.png]

The only downside I can see is the charging with a 13amp plug (that could take 24 hours). To make it really useful, you'd want a fast 7kw type 2 plug and/or a rapid CCS. Maybe they will sort that.

I’ve checked out the website for these. Nowhere can I find the country of manufacture. Any ideas?

That’s much more appealing.
