As far as the design goes, the 2012 Trabant keeps most of the lines of the original model and the car will come in a four-door hatchback body style. The 2012 Trabant will be powered by an electric motor which will get it's juice from a solar panel mounted on the roof of the car. The company says the 2012 Trabant will be able to run for 250 km on a single charge of the battery.
