The car of the future will use electricity or hybrid power module to power its movement.
Very interesting exponent was revealed on the presentation salon in Paris (September 2008). There was established producers and small companies that had felt earlier the market and offering ready for serial production vehicles on decent prices.
The interest to the electro-cars in France is enormous both for the low operating costs and because of the fact that in almost all paid parking spaces they are reserved free places with stations for faster reloading.
From the small companies, that had presented cars in Paris special attention deserves the French Aixam, offering cars powered by electricity both for every day, and for businesses such as truck "Worker”. Ideal for deliveries in the city center with small streets, its maximum speed is 25 km/h.
The Dutch Duracar Holding company showed a small van that is able to reach speed of 120 km/h and having a stockpile of 150 km course. The French Heuliez, previously known for tuning of different models had presented three new developments, driven by electricity. Improvement in its production notes and the French company for racing cars Ligier, also target itself to small ecological cars.
Is not necessary the elektro-car to be bumbling and boring, proving it by the French Lumeneo. Their model "Smera” can surprise everyone on the traffic lights with its acceleration to 100 km/h. for 8 seconds. This fast two-seater is with size of a large motorcycle (length 2.3 meters and width 80 cm).
The micro mobile is driven by two electric motor to power 40 HP and can pass 150 km with one battery charging. “Optimal Energy” of South Africa again has showed its electro mobile "Jul", which comes in two versions - to carry up to six passengers or truck with three seats.
The known little “Smart” of Daymler can also be seen in version of electricity. The car is drawn by the electric motor to power 41 HP and can pass to 115 km with one load from the contact.
From the large manufacturers near serial production of electric cars is only "Mitsubishi" and their “I-MIEV”, expected on the market in Japan in 2009 and in Europe - a year later. 3.30 meters long car has five doors, may rides to four passengers and even has a decent trunk. Its management is like on every little car with automatic speed and with one battery charging can pass to 160 km. The battery charging takes 7 hours from the grid and 30 minutes if you use special power stations for electric cars.
The big companies which are developing electric cars are "Peugeot”, “Citroen”, “Renault”, “Nissan”, “Mitsubishi” and “GM”. Hybrids make “BMW”, “Porsche”, “Mercedes”, “Toyota”, “Ford” and “Fiat”.
