At the current Paris Motor Show in the two German automakers, Daimler and Volkswagen , quite clearly outlined their plans for the production of electric cars. Both take 500-600 kilometers on a single charge as a guide, and the price disparity with classic models to the internal combustion engine, they promise to eliminate by the end of the decade. It remains only to learn how to charge the traction battery for tens of minutes, rather than hours, and we can talk about the appearance of comfortable in everyday use of electric vehicles.
After Three years BMW starts to release electric vehicles brand Mini, and a year later, and will be fully electric new generation of crossover X3. The company promises that the new electric vehicles and provide competitive prices, and decent mileage on a single charge. Over time, the electric BMW will also appear in other classes of brand products.
I must say that the BMW ahead of German rivals in the field of mass production of electric vehicles, firing in 2013-2014 i3 model with a body made of carbon fiber and sophisticated hybrid i8 with the possibility of charging from the network, claiming to be the title of a sports car. The commercial success of both models can not boast, since the former does not have sufficient power reserve, and the second is too expensive for the features provided ($ 140,000), and it can not be called practical. For this reason, BMW thoroughly evaluate all the risks associated with the further development of the model range electric vehicles. This year, sales of hybrids and electric vehicles BMW will be counted 60 thousand units. While competitors only test their strength in the segment, BMW is preparing to release the second generation of electric vehicles. Related Products :
