Electric vehicle presents powerful acceleration

The Tecnalia Technological Corporation has built a completely electric car that can reach 140 kilometers per hour in 10 seconds.

The two-seater car is supported on a single-shell, rigid, lightweight chassis of steel and aluminium alloy, with an adaptable deformable parallelogram suspension system for the four wheels.

It has a peak power of 100kW supplied by a permanent magnet synchronous electric motor, a total weight of 700kg and an energy storage capacity of 15kWh.

It's been built to permit the installation of a battery or small internal combustion engine to extend its range - around 70km at present.

Acceleration from 0 to 100kmh is under 5.7 seconds, and peak speed is around 140kmh, reaching this figure in 10 seconds.
