OSVehicle - The 1st open source mass market car platform (with Renault)

Hi hunters, I’m Tin, the founder and CEO of OSVehicle (YC W16), which makes open source electric vehicle hardware platforms (chassis, braking and suspension system, lithium batteries, electric motor, etc…). I’m proud to announce here a new platform is entering our ecosystem, POM, based on the Renault Twizy EV and soon available for everyone to develop, hack, create new mobility solutions. For the first time in the automotive history, a big automaker is releasing its electric vehicle platform in Open Source and it will be available to everyone on sale through a partnership with OSVehicle. Also ARM is involved in this partnership. Sign up to get more future communications (sales, source files, launch, etc…). Feel free to ask me and my team anything here too! We’d love to hear your feedback.

Now this is a lego project I can get on board with.

Wow. This would be an amazing gift to engineering colleges and universities

Wow that's nice can't wait to see where the creativity will bring them :)

Brilliant! Can't wait to see custom builds happening in London.

Congrats! This is one of the most exciting ideas out there right now. As innovation spreads to cars, an open-source player is very important.

Awesome! This is the perfect platform for hackers / developers. Will you assist your clients in obtaining a licence plate?

It's amazing how much of the car hardware, software and data are open access thanks to the future car companies.

WOW!

Wow - this is crazy. Not to get into deal specifics but what are the biz mechanics? Revenue share on cars sold using? ...electric vehicle platform in Open Source and it will be available to everyone on sale through a partnership with OSVehicle...
