Vehicle development includes: – consolidation of preliminary concepts, through the definition of functionalities and comparison with existing vehicles on the basis of an extensive analysis of user’s needs, safety needs and regulatory requirements; – structural, technical and electronic design and in-house testing; – extensive demonstration and re-design phase. The vehicles, which can be used with or without battery swapping, will be tested in four cities: Rome (Italy), Eilat (Israel) and two other cities identified through a tender procedure. The Rome pilot will start with 50 vehicles and provide input for the subsequent pilot phases in the other sites (where 100 vehicles will be tested) with the aim of achieving a final TRL of 8-9.
