Working on the concept of RAK, KISKA and Opel used a new approach to design. For example, the exterior and interior have been designed in a single process, with many years of experience in designing KISKA motorcycle, car and work with lightweight materials. Space frame made of steel, plastic outer panels. Takako design for RAK high level of safety, affordability and low weight. The developers note that with a minimum expenditure of energy, this concept is a logical continuation of the Opel Ampera.

RAK e width of 1.3 meters, length of about 3 meters, height 119 cm interior accommodates 2 people, nestled in tandem scheme. This arrangement allows for optimum aerodynamics and efficiency. Hood, acting as a roof and windshield, provides an overview of 270 degrees. For the convenience of steering wheel input and output is automatically rejected in the way when the hood is open. In this clever hinge ensures that the hood when picked up not too much increases the height of the machine. For very young drivers car can be set to a maximum speed of 45 km / h with low power consumption.

According to founder Gerald Pussy studio, it was a key moment in the company, which decided to focus on innovative materials and technologies.
