Deliveries of the electric MyCar
have now started in London. After the launch at the British Motor Show
in 2008, the car went on sale earlier this year exclusively from evstores
in London. Now production has started and vehicles are being delivered
to delighted customers in London. The very first customer commented ‘It
will be perfect for my commute!’
The MyCar has been under
development for five years starting with the original styling concept by
Giugiaro in Italy. The electric drive system was developed in Hong Kong
with the help of the Polytechnic University and manufacturing is now
under way in a dedicated plant in China. Throughout the development
period the emphasis has been on styling and quality. The result
certainly succeeds on both and its unique design stands out among the
currently available electric cars.
Using the light car concept the
MyCar is available now and priced realistically at £9,995,- on the road.
Its net weight is half of the lightest production car thus dramatically
reducing its environmental impact. According to evstores’ General
Manager Phil Retsas the MyCar exemplifies the future of urban mobility:
‘light electric cars make a lot of sense because they use less
materials, are energy efficient and can be priced realistically. Unlike
many of the concepts that are being presented to the media by other car
manufacturers the MyCar is available now at a price that is affordable
and competitive’.
