Ko Existence tētahi turi i hoahoatia mō te whakaaroaro. Ka kiia te turi he wāhanga hoahoa whare e tautuhi ana i tētahi tapa, ā, e waiho ana he wāhi kia kī ai i te hinengaro. E rua ngā ariā tuatahi (prototypes) kua hangaia mai i te maitai kore-waikura (stainless steel). Ko te noho ki runga i te Existence, me whai aro me te kaha uaua, nā reira ka whakaitia e te turi te whai tā tinana kia noho watea ai te hinengaro. Ko te nui o ia turi he 1000 mm te whānui, 800 mm te hōhonu me te 600 mm te teitei. I hangaia ngā ariā tuatahi mā te ringa, ā, i whakarōpūhia ētahi tikanga rerekē kia tutuki pai ai te tika me te pono.
