EVUM aCar

The aCar is fully electric, with a modular lithium-ion battery setup and operating voltage of 48 V. It has a 200 km range, a top speed of 70 km/h and 1000 kg payload. The truck has a modular design, meaning that it can quickly be converted from a tilting flatbed or closed box unit. It is 1.5 m in width, 4 m in length and 2 m high. It is suitable for driving indoors and outdoors and on and off-road as it is designed to handle steep terrain and loose driving surfaces. An optional solar panel on the roof can provide battery support and more range. The battery can be recharged within seven hours at an earthed socket.
