Obvio!īs vehicles
will meet or exceed all USA
D.O.T safety standards, all
European Community Standards,
and all Japan and China safety
standards.
 The
Obvio !īs Monocoque chassis is
bonded together with the body
shell high-protection structure
in a special process of
reinforced composites in RTM
Light – Resin Transfer Molding.
The
internal and
external panels are in special
high-tech Bio-Plastic from GE
Plastics and delivers an “A”
class finishing.
The body shell
and integrated chassis form a
high strength monocoque
structure, providing full
passenger protection in
rollovers, front, rear, and side
impacts. Single piece, bonded
construction yields high torsion
and flexional stiffness,
providing a solid body with
superior handling.
The “Niess
Elliptical Survival Rings” allow
the Monocoque chassis to
function as a passenger safety
cell, designed to distribute any
impact throughout the vehicle’s
structure. These elliptical
survival rings are based on
technology developed and
patented by the Aeronautical
Engineer Mr. Marc William Niess,
who was licensed by Obvio !.
All our
key-suppliers are large,
established companies, including
MVC-Marcopolo -
www.mvc-marcopolo.com.br -
from the parent company
Marcopolo - the world’s second
largest bus factory (
www.marcopolo.com.br ) –
specializing in the development
of innovative solutions in
plastics, using fully automated,
high tech processes.
