Fully Electric SUV Truck by Phoenix Motor Cars
Did you know that a fully electric SUV is about to come out. The launch of the new vehicles just got delayed until 2008 because of the certification process.
The company, Phoenix Motorcars, already has 500 on order from clients. Pacific Gas and Electric is one customer and so are many government municipalities. These organizations buy large fleets of cars and often don’t go long distances. Thus, the 100 mile range is not a problem with compared to regular consumers.
The cars run for 130 miles on a single charge and can hit 100 miles per hour. The key is the battery which can be charged quickly. 10 Minute of recharge to 95% capacity!!
Vehicle assembly in Ontario, Canada.
$3 for a total recharge on your power bill!
Power everything.
ZERO emmssions!
It will cost you 45K though.
Estimated 2008 sales production is 500 vehicles. In 2009 6000 vehicles when the regular consumer will have some access. All you Lexus SUV buyers do something good for the environment!

wow, $3 a charge and charges in less than 10 minutes…wonder what the price tag is

Its only 45K I read. Its the price of a LEXUS SUV! The rich suburbanites in Orange County, CA and Fairfax County, VA will be able to afford!

This is a very good way to protect the environment. As it is fully electric, it won’t pollute the environment. It is the future of mobile.

I agree with Armand Rousso, the future of mobility and transportation is the electric cars and maybe electric truck.

Sounds so good, it mkes me want to cry. I wonder what kind of towing capacity it will have, and how much that will affect acceleration and mileage per charge. Sort of a hefty price tag, though in the long long long run, it will save consumers some dinero.

EV technology may be the best there is, but it’s still an emerging industry. I’m going to wait to make a purchase until the price points come down. Zap seems to have the best reputaion as far as companies go.
