They
claimed the vehicle's weights well below the conventional vehicles that
exist today, thanks to the use of carbon fiber and other materials.
"This car will be
made of very light materials, a mixture of carbon fiber material
(normally used in the Formula-1 technology) and Kevlar (used in
bulletproof vests and glass). Its weight will be lighter 30 percent
compared with the same sized car, yet more powerful and safe," the
company said in a statement, as quoted from Autoevolution.
Its battery capacity
so as to deliver a car to roam up to 250 kilometers for one single
charges. The car's acceleration from 0 to 100 kph can be done no more
than 10 seconds. In addition, this car also uses the fast battery
charging technology.
