This is something many people will appreciate, and it makes The Garia LSV a unique product,” Anders Lynge, the designer of the Garia said in a release. Garia LSV's drivetrain is built by the same Italian company which produces the Ducati gearboxes, while the double wishbone front suspension is uselessly similar to those found in sports cars and inspired by Formula 1 cars. It is powered by a 3-phase AC motor developing 3 kW (4 Hp) for 60 minutes.
