The body is interesting as well. To save wait the Haval E uses carbon fiber composite materials (GFRP) in the doors, the bonnet and other parts. The windows are made of special ‘PC Glass’, developed by Bayer AG from Germany, it reduces the weight of the windows by at least 40%. The roof has solar panels that can power the aircon and other electrical systems. No word yet on production plans…
