The result is a range of up to 300 miles (483 kg) on 1.5kg of hydrogen and a top speed of 60 mph. million) EU grant, Riversimple will be conducting a public 12-month Beta trial of 20 Rasa prototype cars as part of the continued development of the first full production model which will come to market in 2018.
A home-charging setup for off-peak parsimony turns plug-ins into e-commutercars. Mercedes promises a 0-60 mph time of 6.2 seconds, a little slower than the gas-powered midrange GLC, and a top speed of 135 mph as a hybrid, or 87 mph in its electric drive mode. Do you keep your daily duties at 50 miles or less ?
Acceleration to 100 kph (62 mph) is decent. But this is also where EV performance is at its best, as they tend to lose some steam at higher speeds and are often electronically limited to 100 mph. But the assumption is that people would buy the higher trim due to it boasting more features and a little more power.
It makes a perfectly good second car, commutercar, or perhaps primary vehicle for a single driver or couple living in tight urban quarters. One “surprise and delight” feature of which Fiat is very proud: below 20 mph, the car broadcasts the mandatory pedestrian alert sound. Top speed is 94 mph.
As soon as someone comes up with all day range (300 miles plus) or quick charge capability (less than 30-60 minutes) for a reasonable price (25k - 40k), electric cars will start to take over. Glad to see the variety & availability of electic commutercars (vs hybrids & PHEV) is rising.
