NovaEnergia

estou completamente solidário com a demora dos fabricantes (o annos dominis 2010) porque na conjuntura actual estou a ver toda a gente a optar em massa por um veiculo destes menos por ecologia e mais por vingança contra as gasolineiras.

here's a cool new city car set to create a buzz! it’s the electric-powered b0 – or b-zero – and it’s the work of legendary italian style house pininfarina.

a rival to the mercedes-built smart,
it is powered by an electric engine, and uses hi-tech batteries along with a bank of fast-charging supercapacitors supplied by french company ballore.

unveiled at the paris motor show, the four-door four-seater is tipped to start production as early as 2009, at pininfarina’s hq in turin. as well as its good looks, it offers a range of never before seen technologies, including lithium-metal-polymer (lmp) batteries which can be recharged in less than four hours from a standard household plug. they also boast a range of more than 150 miles – more than lithium-ion cells. battery life will also be boosted by solar roof panels and an automatic gearbox.

top speed will to be limited to 80 mph, while the b0 also gets an innovative crash protection system with a cabin built to sit within the car, independent of the bodyshell. prices should start at £4,000.

o companheiro serges na sua citação ao artigo da autoexpress, onde se pode ler
"prices should start at £4,000." veio aqui por-me em pulgas!

fui fazer a conversão a um site, por curiosidade e vejam:

4,000.00 gbp = 5,150.94 eur
united kingdom pounds euro
1 gbp = 1.28773 eur 1 eur = 0.776557 gbp

a confirmar-se este valor base, e a aplicar-se no nosso país! março de 2009 (uma eventual comercialização à escala europeia, digamos assim vá...) acho que o sucesso seria que nem pãezinhos quentes. eu queria um! será um sonho? veremos...

if you're a fan of pininfarina's b0 concept, go and join the list.

the two partners in the car, pininfarina and bolloré, have officially opened their registration list for a €330 per month lease for the car.

the lease includes 24 hour roadside assistance. vincent bolloré announced during the geneva motor show that the first orders will be delivered in about a year, and future buyers will be able to test-drive one of the 15 current prototypes before that.

the car will first be leased in six european countries (france, italy, germany, united kingdom, spain and switzerland) and the b0 will also someday reach u.s. and some asian markets. you will be able to lease the car online, and the marque is planning to create dealer networks to distribute and repairing the car.

according to bolloré, b0 is able to go 100 kilometers for €1. it's got a 50 kw (68hp) motor, a 250 km (155 miles) range and is able to run for 30 km (20 miles) on a charge of "a few minutes" (a full charge is achieved after 5 hours plugged into any wall socket).

bolloré also mentioned that the car will be built at pininfarina's site in turin, italy, with planned production rates of 10,000 cars in 2010, 20,000 in 2011 and 30,000 units in 2012.

two additional production sites are also planned in quimper and montreal and, depending on lithium reserves, one could be installed in bolivia.

porque não leasing, é preciso é ler bem o contrato.
