    OSVehicle - Open Source Vehicle | Introducing Tabby: an industrializable, production ready, versatile, universal chassis.

    ECOFRIENDLY
    Compatible with all types of engines, especially the IHE (Integrated Hybrid Engine), TABBY can be green and have zero emissions.

    QUICK ASSEMBLY, EASY MAINTENANCE
    TABBY can be assembled in less than 1 hour. Maintenance is also super easy thanks to the quick assembly and disassembly.
    We are open to contributions by Makers, Designers, and anyone who would like to add his project to OSVehicle.


    With a locally fabricated body, will this be feasible in the Philippines?

    A platform for the Tsikot Design Team to work on?

    Extendable yung frame-rails? Ergo: scalable?

    Looks cool.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    Looks like a go-cart or golf cart on steroids.

    find an old Daihatsu FWD 3 cyclinder 800cc or a under 400CC motorcycle engine, a basic box frame chassis, standard rack and pinion. two seats.Looks like you could use big bike shocks too to save on weight and cost.

    Perfect for a city roundabout.

    The challenge really is the cost. From my experience the drivetrain is the most expensive part of this type of build.

    I guess the ride height is to make it more universal in terms of road conditins bec for the same effort you could just build a nice simple no frills 2 seat roadster type of car.

    Just my 2 cents.
