Zero emissions, free, silent and wireless. all day and every day throughout its life cycle, when driving and when parked. Even in northern countries like The Netherlands the sun gives enough energy for average urban use. The solar panel can charge up to 22 km per day in The Netherlands and 31 km in Spain. The average micro car usage is around 12 km per day. The solar panel works in any light, also in the shade.

The vehicle is powered by electric motors and batteries so it also works in the night, in winter or indoors. With a length of only 2 meters, the Squad can be parked very efficiently perpendicular on an average parking spot, with the tyres against the curb. Congestion and parking in cities is a growing problem worldwide. An average car has a stationary footprint of around 10 m2, a very inefficient use of the scarce space in city centers. A Squad has a footprint of only 2,4 m2, or 1,2 m2 per person.
