Electric car registrations do not represent 1% of the market in Spain. In Norway, 'zero emissions' vehicles had a market share last year of 31.2% . In the Nordic country, electric mobility is not a thing of the future, but a subject of the present. Perhaps, therefore, it is not surprising that 'start-up' is born as Fresco Motors , which aims to launch its first electric vehicle in 2021.

The Reverie, which is what has been called this 'opera prima' already admits and has reservations. It will join a vast repertoire of small businesses and initiatives that have presented their proposals for electric vehicles, easier to develop, by mechanics and components, than those of internal combustion. Although few achieve regular or continuous production over time.

Fresco Motors is a company with a curious genesis. It was founded in 2016 in Trondheim (Norway). Declare to have 9 employees. It takes its name from Jacque Fresco, an American who created the Venus project. A non-profit organization that aims to eliminate war, poverty and inequality. Among the ideas of this idealistic vision is the commitment to a resource-based economy, as a replacement for the current system.

If you have to put a resemblance to the Reverie, we would soon find it in any Tesla model. The front makes it clear. By size, the one that most resembles is the Model 3, although its dimensions are larger, since it is 4.81 meters long, 2.23 meters wide and 1.4 meters high. Its wheelbase is 2.75 meters. In terms of performance, it would be above 300 km / h top speed and would be able to go from 0 to 100 km / h in two seconds.

These are the details that are known of this model, which is known to combine an electric motor (unspecified figures) associated with a four-speed automatic gearbox. It equips a 500 kilos modular battery with individual modules: "Our battery works like a drawer, plug and play ". Therefore, if one is damaged, only that unit can be replaced. You could even get a portable battery to expand the capacity. On the forms of load: it can also be through panels.

The images that have been revealed of the vehicle, according to the company's CEO, Espen Kvalvik, are computer recreations. The company reports that it is not a purchase commitment, but an opportunity. Nor do you have to pay anything. Subsequently, those who book will have access to events such as vehicle testing in Norway.
