(Also known as "how to copy Tesla in 3 easy steps".)1) Buy a Lotus... everyone's go-to when they need something cool, quick, and light weight! In Chrysler's case, it was the new Europa, vs. Tesla's choice of an Elise.
2) Remove all the gasoline burning parts.
3) Replace said parts with high powered electric motor, to the tune of 268hp.
They figure it'll go from 0 to 60 in less than 5 seconds, top out at about 120 miles per hour, and will be able to cover 150-200 miles on a single charge (which they claim will take 8 hours on 110v, and 4 hours on a 220v circuit).
This is how to make, and
sell EVs. GM take note. Having an arse-ugly, four-door, Civic/Prius crossbreed that can only do 40 miles on a charge is
not the way to make people take note.
As for this little EV... remove the Viper copycat stripes and I'd buy one!
