The exterior design was inspired by aerospace engineering, with the inclusion of a rear fin, and a cockpit-like cabin. The cockpit cabin will differ, depending on the number of chosen seats, from one to three. The chassis design was designed by L.M. Gianetti. The interior slightly represents the British-built sports car, the McLaren F1, with the inclusion of three seats, but this is only if the customer has chosen the option of three front seating. The interior also contains a denim material for the seats, which is constructed by high-end Italian clothing company, . The exterior, interior, and chassis designs were each designed by the team of Fabrizio and Giorgetto Giugiaro and company L.M. Gianetti.

Specifications
The Ren is powered by a turbine and a lithium-ionelectric motor, but there are three specification options, making the setups different. The option for a turbine-electric motor combination was, according to CEO Matthew Jin, to make the conversion process of freeing the combustion engine to convert chemical energy into mechanical energy more efficient. There are three specification options. The first one contains the turbine and two electric motors, which does and, which means the power-to-weight ratio sits at per ton. This makes the car rear-wheel drive only. The second includes a turbine and four motors that boasts and, making the power-to-weight ratio at. The final setup has the turbine and six motors, this time pushing and, leaving the power-to-weight ratio at per ton. These last two setups make the car all-wheel drive. The range is at with 80 litres of fuel. The electric range is. The car can achieve 31 MPG. At the most potent form, the car's wheel torque can get to as high as of wheel torque. Electric motor lifespan stands at 100,000 cycles, which makes the battery longevity something to be less worried about. The weight is set at. The chassis was built in carbon-fiber material, with an aluminum bulkhead rear. The AP Racing brakes are carbon ceramic discs, in which are coupled with six-piston calipers front and rear. The suspension uses a horizontally adjustable coil-over shock setup.
Performance
The car can accelerate from in 2.5 seconds and can attain a top speed of.
In media
The car was questioned of its use of the turbine engine in an interview with CEO Matthew Jin and Autocar. He explained that this was to make the conversion of freeing the combustion engine to convert chemical energy into mechanical energy be more efficient.
