Re: [EVDL] EVLN: £13k/$22k Peel P50 EVs available> World's Smallest & Cutest

[jerry freedomev via EV]

Hi David and All
This is basically a golf cart with a FG body.  These and NEV's go for 
about $4-9k mostly now and many thousands are in use transporting our seniors, 
others, many as their main transportation in Fla, US.
  They said it went 40 mph which for such a narrow 3wh is pushing it 
stability wise   Of course  the EV version with it's low battery weight makes 
it better.
  I doubt it could be made for under $6k as one who does composites.
  On the Citi-Car the motor was rated at 3.5hp, my E Woody was powered 
by one to 60mph, that was at 36vdc where the C Car was 48vdc so more like 6hp 
cont like it was in later units rated at 48vdc.
It was likely doing 11 hp going 60 mph in the e Woody. Though only 
for minutes before the 12vdc batteries went low..

   Jerry Dycus.

Cute indeed!  Now, if they knock 80-90% off that price, they might sell a 
few thousand.

They don't state a top speed, but I'd guess maybe 30mph with a 3hp motor, 
since the original Citicar did 35mph at 3.5hp.  With that and the range, 
honestly, it's not much more than a toy.  You might spend $2-3k for 
something like that, but $22K?  Seriously?

[EVDL] EVLN: £13k/$22k Peel P50 EVs available> World's Smallest & Cutest

The Peel P50 is the World's Smallest (and Cutest) Electric Car!

Back in the 1960's Peel produced the smallest production cars in the world,
but sadly they had to close up shop in 1966. Fast forward to today and the
company has received a fresh round of funding to relaunch their most popular
vehicles with all-electric engines! The Peel P50 measures just 54 inches
long and 41 inches wide – and it’s a top contender for the world’s cutest
electric car.

With styling that looks like it came out of The Jetsons cartoon, the Peel 50
has a bubble-topped body that looks way cooler going down the street than
other electric cars. Its sibling the Peel Trident has a more upright body
and it can hold two passengers, whereas the Peel 50 only has room for the
driver.

With a three horsepower electric motor, neither the Peel P50 or Trident will
be able to zoom past a Tesla Model S, but the vehicles’ 15-mile range and
compact exteriors makes them perfect for dense cities like San Francisco or
New York. Both models are street legal in the UK and US, but they aren’t
cheap – with pricing starting at £12,999 ($21,575 US).
