We hear every day about electric cars, but we rarely see them, and here comes the question: Is driving electric cars really enjoyable?
The Volvo electric car, compared to engines that rely on combustion engines, is almost an oasis of relaxation because of the quiet sound of the engine and not to get out of the exhaust. In his talk about the icon of the Bavarian company "i3", which he described as quiet but full of force.
No roar and no voices
Once seated in a BMW i3, you can see what Vellan Broch was looking for. After the operation, the driver will hear nothing, no roar, no running sounds, just silence, so the pressure on the pedal produces little sound.
And all that is heard from the car is the sound of the tires on the road and the wind, and of course the sounds of the outside if the windows are open, but is this with all the fun of driving is present or not?
Christian Louer, director of marketing at Jaguar Germany, explained that the acceleration of the electric car was unbelievable. Speaking of the electric vehicle "I-Pace" and the development of energy, he added that the torque of 696 Newton / meter is in the hands of the captain immediately.
It may occur to himself that this is expected of a marketing manager in an interview about one of his company's products, but in fact the Jaguar electric acceleration is already amazing, when the pressure pedal the passenger will notice the amount of pressure it poses on the leather seat.
Great performance rates
For example, the Nissan "Leaf" accelerates to 100 km / h in 8.8 seconds, thanks to a 110 kW / 150 hp engine, while the Porsche The Macan with a 252-horsepower internal turbocharged engine achieves the same acceleration rate in 6.7 seconds.
But at the same time, the Porsche will have no chance at all for the Jaguar "I-Pace", which needs only 4.8 seconds to reach 100 km / h of stability, thanks to the 429 kW / 400 hp electric motor.
"I grew up with the automotive world, and I had a lot of reservations, but it all faded away when I first drove an electric car. It was like love at first sight," he says.
The extent of the walk
Passage is one of the critical points of electric mobility, fear of the very short term, said Gareth Donsmore, director of the electric vehicle sector in April, which he sees as a temporary problem. Each new electric vehicle increases the range of traffic.
For example, the reach of the Nissan "Leaf" - as reported by the producer - 415 km in the civil traffic for each shipment of the battery of 40 kWh, Jaguar and promote the car "I-Pace" through a range of up to 480 kilometers.
In addition, freight infrastructure is expected to expand in the coming years. He added that the easier the shipment of electric vehicles, will write the spread and appearance, such as the availability of terminals in places such as work and shops.
