A SKATEBOARD CHASSIS is the underpinning/ platform of many EVs:

🛹 Resembles a skateboard as the base of the vehicle

🔋 Includes battery mounted in the floor 

(with/out electric motors in them)

💻 also comprised of electronics that are necessary to operate vehicle without mechanical controls  (drive-by-wire or X-by-wire)

⬇️ Provides a lower center of gravity/ improves handling

💁🏻‍♀️ Roomier interior space 

🚘 Allows for Frunks (Front Trunks) 

🚙 Allows for manufacturers use of multiple vehicle “shells” on top

🧑‍🔧 OEM can modify as needed for different body configurations (platform sharing)

⬇️ Lowers cost by not having as many parts

✅ Easier to repair with modular parts
