InterfaceA socket for someone else's self-driving system
A standard control interface lets an outside kit, such as May Mobility's or Tier IV's, command steering, brakes and speed; key systems are duplicated.
SteeringSteer-by-wire
No mechanical shaft links the steering wheel to the road wheels; steering is electronic, which suits computer control.
CabinLow floor and a powered ramp
The floor sits 37 cm up (27 cm lowered) behind a 1.28 m wide door; an electric ramp lets a wheelchair user board alone from a normal kerb.
Multi-useBus at rush hour, shop at midday
Fittings and signage swap so it runs as a shuttle morning and evening and a store while charging; it can also power buildings in a blackout.
