The Israeli startup has announced production plans to bring a new electric car to market. City Transformer is a tiny electric car that solves the problem of finding parking in large cities. And for greater stability, it can change the distance between the wheels.
The City Transformer has a length of 250 cm, a width of 140 cm and a height of 158 cm, which provides excellent maneuverability and compactness. But the engineers decided not to stop there and equipped the baby with a transforming chassis, allowing the width to be reduced to 100 cm. When driving on the highway, when speed and stability are needed, the City Transformer will be full-size, and in the parking lot or if necessary, it will “narrow ". The transformation process takes place both at the moment of stopping and in motion, which will also increase maneuverability on the road.
The developers believe that the City Transformer can become the perfect city car, changing the face of the megacities of the future. The transforming design will increase the chance of finding a parking space by 10 times, and with an increase in the number of such cars, emissions into the environment will also decrease. Inside the small car there are two electric motors of 10 liters each. with. - one at the front and one at the back. This is enough to reach a speed of 90 km / h with a full-size wheelbase and 40 km / h in compact mode. The developers believe that City Transformer will be able to offer autonomy from 120 to 180 km, and the built-in battery charges from zero to 80% in just 30 minutes from a regular outlet.
City Transformer includes anti-lock braking system, electronic stability control and air conditioning. The first deliveries will begin in 2022. This will be a small-scale production, after which the release will expand at the expense of partners, and the mass version will enter the market in 2024. The retail price will be € 16,000 ($ 18,750), but if you pre-order, you can get a brand new City Transformer for just € 12,500 ($ 14,650).
