### 1. Meet the Electric Fastback

A silver electric fastback waits in a dark studio\. A fastback is a car whose roof slopes in one long line to the tail, which helps air flow smoothly past\. Drag to walk around it, and pinch or scroll to zoom\.

There is no grille opening: an electric motor needs far less cooling air than a petrol engine\.

### 2. Five Paint Colours

The car tries on pearl white, metallic silver, deep black, midnight blue and metallic red\. Only the paint changes: the shape, wheels and lights stay exactly the same\. Slide to pick your favourite\.

Metallic paint hides tiny flakes of metal that sparkle as you move around the car\.

### 3. Inside the Cabin

Look down through the panoramic glass roof at the seats, dashboard and big centre screen\. The floor is flat because there is no engine or gearbox tunnel underneath\. Choose a trim colour for the seats and dashboard\.

### 4. X\-ray View

The body turns see\-through like an X\-ray\. Now you can see how the seats, wheels, motors and battery all fit inside one shell\. Switch the X\-ray off and on to compare\.

### 5. Battery and Motors

Cut away half of the car to find its power\. The flat battery fills the floor between the wheels, and a motor sits on each axle\. Orange cables carry power to an inverter on each motor, which changes the battery’s steady current into the kind the motor needs\.

A heavy battery low in the floor keeps the car steady in corners\.

### 6. In the Driver’s Seat

Sit behind the wheel\. A digital display behind the steering wheel shows the driving information, and the big centre screen handles maps and music\. Drag to look around the console, doors and glass roof\.

### 7. The Finished Car

Back to silver for one last slow turn under the studio lights\. Every view used the same car model, so what you configured is what you see\. Slide to repaint it one more time\.
