On the streets of the capital will tricycles

The Moscow company "Electrotransport technologies" has invented a three-wheeled car with electric drive. The test specimen was launched in the capital's techno park “Caliber”.

Ultra compact cars created from domestic components and spare parts. The body, electronics, wheels, power plant - all this is made of high-quality plastic produced in Russia. The serial production of the new car will be organized on the territory of Electrotransport Technologies, and the first model will be tested in field conditions in March of this year.

A driver who plans to manage a new product should have the rights of category “B” or “B1” with him. The maximum possible speed of the car is 100 km / h, the distance it can travel without recharging is about 100 km. In the cabin at the same time can be two people. The battery charge takes less than 2 hours.

The authors plan to create an analogue of a three-wheeled electric vehicle in the cargo version - to work with courier supplies. It is expected that the start of its production will coincide with the beginning of the mass production of the passenger version.

New cars can be in demand in various areas - in urban services for landscaping, in public utilities, rental companies.

It is worth noting that even in Moscow, the infrastructure that makes it possible to freely use cars on electric engines is, in fact, absent. In the capital, only 50 gas stations are equipped for such equipment. About the regions and do not say.

The first 12 units of equipment are planned to be assembled by the summer. The creators guarantee that their technical characteristics allow the use of such transport in any weather. Whether the models will be in demand in modern conditions of Russian reality, time will tell.
