The tandem two-seat vehicle features a clamshell body fitted to an electric chassis that's not street legal, but is fully functional, although its top speed is just 31 mph.

Four of the vehicles were built and used in various media for the brand and others, including a feature role in the video for Rich The Kid's "New Freezer" featuring Kendrick Lamar.
This particular example was owned by the Peterson Automotive Museum and was auctioned on the Bring A Trailer website to raise money for the museum's collection as well as the Energy Independence Now organization, which promotes the development of hydrogen-powered vehicles and the infrastructure needed for them.
