4,000 Watt electric Roadster for summer slow ride

electric 2-person roadster
If you had extra bucks to burn, you could get the 4K-watt electric roadster from Hammacher, so you could then bring your loved one for a slow joyride in the sunshine. This 4,000 watt roadster is only meant for two persons, which isn’t suitable for those with a big family.

The little electric roadster travels no faster than 25mph. It has six lead-acid batteries, which are the only power source for its 4,000-watt AC motor. The six batteries can let you travel up to 60 miles at maximum speed of 25mph before requiring a recharge.

The electric roadster is equipped with automatic transmission system, the suspension and the wheelbase are good enough for you to travel over little bumpy roads and make safe turning.

    It’s stuff like this that gives electric cars a bad rep. Sure it looks like the ultra cool Smart Brabus, but it’s got about one-fifteenth of the power… good luck climbing any hills with that amazing 5.5 BHP…

    Pity really, you could get almost as much range with a more powerful motor and the same batteries, if you kept the (very low!) speed cap in place. It’d only burn a little extra when climbing or accelerating and about the same when cruising.

    If only it could make 45 like the G-Wiz it might be more practical and not a mobile roadblock.
