Elletrica: UK’s first electric car is eco friendly

elettrica

In first look this car seems small and cute. But don’t be prejudiced only by how this teeny meany car looks. This head turner has much more to offer. When on road, people are awed by its design and the drivers by its efficiency. Styled and designed in Milan this car comes with Japanese technology and British Engineering. Ideal for two (and their luggage), it has wonderfully spacious, stylish and comfortable interiors; leather seats and a tinted windshield that extends to the roof to add that extra panache and at the same time extra visibility to the driver. The first electric car production by UK (its available from this fall), Elletrica, is available in Lithium- ion batteries which makes this car run at a speed of about 45 mph for up to 70 miles at a one time charge, making it suitable for longer journeys as well. This performance is not to so common when it comes to electric cars.

Quite able to maneuver through congested city traffic it is brisk in performance and handling, has powerful disc brakes, aluminum safety cage, front and rear impact bars and has even undergone side crash testing with results ‘well beyond EU requirements for this type of vehicle’ and offering much more than just a city car. Just plug the car in a standard socket and it will be fully charged in around 5 hours, a few minutes or few hours, one can charge this car without fearing the risk of damage. Ellectrica would cost you only about £5 to travel over 1000 miles and is also exempt from London congestion charge, road tax. Owners will also enjoy free parking in Westminster, the City and many other parts of London. The Elettrica is priced at £9,950 for the lead-battery powered version and at £12,750 for the lithium powered version. Prices also include registration and delivery to any London address.
