Seat is one of the components of a car that has a lot of weight, existing one only focus on comfort but lack of ease and efficiency in manufacturing process and customizability for different user lifestyles.

            What makes “E-seater” difference from any other seat is it has a concept of weight reduction in order to be 
used in electric car, easier and more efficiency manufacturing process. Also, can be customized for different user tastes and lifestyles. "E-seater" is not making benefits for just electric vehicles but it can be a good concept for future vehicle.
