Manufacturability
Off-the-shelf ComponentsAccounts for 60% of vehicle costExcellent qualityFully-integrated into vehicle design
Manufacturability
Bulk Production through Laser Cutting/WaterjettingUprights are a good exampleCost effective due to reduced machine
timeFast turnaround with minimal tooling
costs
