VRS Agito supercar concept
California-based VRS
Electric Cars has announced plans to introduce its new Agito concept at the
Beijing Motor Show on April 26th. Named after the Latin word for "I
move," the Agito is being billed as an advanced supercar that promises to
"revolutionize automotive aerodynamics."
The company was vague on
details but confirmed the concept is a near production vehicle with an electric
powertrain. That's not much to go on but the teaser image suggests the car will
have a rounded front fascia with LED headlights. The model also appears to have
a relatively low roof, a compact cabin, and a distinctive rear end.

The car was created by a
"team of skilled young-internet famous designers" who reached out to
VRS founder and CEO Robert L. Laird. No
names were mentioned but the company says Laird likes to "promote and
showcase young talent."
While little is known about
the company or its first car, VRS says it is funded by Chinese backers. This makes it somewhat similar to Faraday
Future which plans to open a $1 billion production facility in North Las Vegas,
Nevada.
