Obvio Model 012 ~ Brazilian Electric Vehicle!!!

This is Obvio's latest model scheduled for release this year. I would actually buy this model if it were sold here in the United States! It's perfect. It has a sleak sporty style, the interior has tons of bells and whistle, it's compact, plus it's environmentally friendly. I would like to share some more information regarding the Brazilian Auto manufacturer Obvio! I have ONLY posted a little bit. Therefore, I highly recommend you visit Obvio's website. I am hoping you too might get excited about INNOVATOR's like this and then you will want to see MORE or perhaps even become one yourself! We have to learn to adapt and change with the times.
