Some specs about the car:

- 31.5kWh

- 630kg

- 300km (186mi) range

This review explains the concept behind the car in more detail: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4aTzuUrdyIc

Lack of DC fast charging makes the range even more limiting. It takes 2.7 hours to add another 150 miles. Modern EVs can add 150 miles of range in 10-15 minutes.

  • Take a look at the video the car driving. I don't think people who buy this are worried about range anxiety.

300 km with an extra battery. 200 km and 590 kg with a smaller one. It's about weight of a Lotus Elan, a bit heavier than a Fiat 500.

Pros: Proper EV motor scream. Cons: 56HP.

  • Yeah, the unfortunate reality with EVs is power and weight are tightly correlated, since the power output is limited by the batteries, and more battery capacity generally means more power output.

  • Ah... that could explain the apparent absence of airbags.

    • haha, however, just because you can't move very fast doesn't mean something else moving fast won't hit you.
