Volkswagen AG will be unveiling a new one-seater experimental electric car next month in hopes to reduce emissions and work on future driving concepts.

Confirmation comes from VW’s research chief Juergen Leohold said Ruth Holing, a spokeswoman for VW. The concept will be designed specifically for limited journeys.

Other details about the car have yet to be released, but VAG says that the one-seater will be “even better” than the XL1 Super Efficient Vehicle diesel-electric plug-in hybrid that was unveiled this past January.

The car will be unveiled on September 8th in Berlin after VW set plans for battery-powered vehicles to account for 3% in their sales by 2018.
