The electric Kia Ray is ready

Electrification technology is at a very advanced stage
Kia presented the electric version of the compact model Ray. It may not be widely addressed to the European market, however, it shows us the great steps the brand has taken towards electrification.
In continuation of the "simple" Ray model presented by Kia some time ago, now we see that the electric version of the model is also ready. In fact, in the relevant announcement it is emphasized that the Ray EV is the first electric model manufactured on the same production line as the simple conventional versions of the same model.
In any case, it is interesting to emphasize that the Ray EV uses a lithium-ion battery but also an electric motor with a power of 50kW and torque 167 Nm and the work it produces is transmitted to the wheels of the front axle. Thanks to this motor, the Ray EV accelerates from a standstill to 100 km/h in 15,9 seconds and its top speed reaches 130 km / h.

To extend the measure of withdrawal

With a legislative act, it is expected to continue 2012 the withdrawal measure, according to secure information.

The new withdrawal measure is expected to be enacted either by an Act of Legislative Content, or with an amendment that will be submitted directly to the Parliament.

The all-electric Mitsubishi i-MiEV

 How would it feel to drive around in a car that does not emit a single gram of pollution and is only powered by the home socket; The Mitsubishi i-MiEV works just like that.
Purely electric vehicles are sure to be the main mode of transportation in the near future, since weaning off fossil fuels is becoming more and more imperative, due to a reduction in stocks and mainly to deal with air pollution which is constantly increasing.
With these data, the electric Mitsubishi i-MiEV shows us the way of the future, since it moves without needing any type of conventional fuel. All it needs to refuel is an outlet, like the one we use for our electrical appliances. So, mini Japanese model manages to "smile" ironically while passing gas stations!

Using the Mitsubishi i-MiEV is extremely simple, economic and above all ecological. Any problems related to the acquisition and use of the particular car, are related to the Greek reality.
This is because the fast charging supply network for the electric models is completely absent (with the exception of the three experimental stations of a known gas station chain), while the Greek state has taken care, so that a luxury tax is imposed on this eco-friendly car and makes its importation prohibitive.
