The Nimbus: a Futuristic electric minibus

This concept car looks like it would be great on Safari but I'm not sure how it would do nose to nose with a Eurovan or a Vanagon in collision.  I'd be curious to find out what its range is.  They will need some US DOT approved bumpers if it ever goes into production for US import, but interesting nonetheless.
