You've probably never heard of Eli Electric Vehicles, but this little company is making big waves in the electric vehicle world. It just announced reservations are now open in the U.S. for its popular Eli Zero microcar. So what's the deal with these 'microcars' anyway? They're basically tiny EVs designed for zipping around cities. In Europe, they're called quadricycles, and in the U.S. they fall under the low-speed vehicle category.
The Eli Zero is tiny but mighty Despite its tiny size, the Eli Zero packs a pretty big punch. Thanks to its 8 kWh battery pack, it can go 60 miles on a single charge. And with a 3.2 kW onboard charger, you can top it up in just under three hours at a 240V station. Sure, it's no speed demon, with a top speed of 25 mph. But it's got all the amenities of a regular car, like A/C, keyless entry and even an optional Sony infotainment system.
The Eli Zero is a niche success story It's a pretty niche market. Most new automakers in this space have struggled to sell more than a few dozen units. But the Eli Zero has already found success in Europe and French Polynesia, with hundreds cruising the streets . Eli Zero is coming to America Now Eli is bringing their pint-sized EV to the States, and you can reserve yours today for just $200 . At $11,990, the Eli Zero is pretty affordable, too.
What do you think about microcars like the Eli Zero for city driving? Would you consider getting one as an affordable, eco-friendly option for running errands and short commutes around town? Or do the limitations like a 25 mph top speed and 35 mph road restriction make it impractical for your needs? Let us know by writing us at Cyberguy.com/Contact.
