Electric Mercedes is ready for manufacture

If the Japanese companies already sell electromobiles not only in the country, but also in the West Germans while are very cautious. Mercedes-Benz company only this year will exhaust the first party electric versions A-class in volume of all in 500 pieces. Them will transfer in leasing to the organizations, and Germans will steadfastly watch operation cars to make changes to a design of the future models. Similarly now BMW tests trial lot Mini E.

It is necessary to notice that the design of younger Mercedes-Benz A-class, unlike many competitors, was initially created taking into account alteration possibility in electropenalties. Still the first generation of the A-class which were issued in 1997, had a double floor in which there is enough place for seating of batteries. Modern generation has inherited this feature. As a result version E-Cell can brag of quite good characteristics in comparison with other electromobiles. So the cruising range at full gymnastics makes 200 km while the majority of contenders on 40 km has less.

Mercedes electromotor has two modes of behavior. At usual driving it saves energy and gives out 68 h.p. But, say, at overtaking it can quickly develop 95 forces. If to judge on dispersal from a place to 100 km/h the A-class you will not name dynamical car: an electropenalty is required on performance of this exercise 14 sec. However, in a city mode of movement, the car, probably, is capable to overtake many neighbors in a stream as on dispersal to 60 km/h it is necessary only 5,5 sec. The maximum speed – 150 km/h.

The car is completed with climate control, the xenon headlights, system of an automatic parking, and also a totality of airbags. It is known that one of weak places electromobiles is that at driving with the engaged air conditioner or an oven, the accumulator charge comes to an end too quickly. Germans have thought up how partially to solve this problem. When the car costs at night on additional charge, to it it is possible to allow to warm up or cool in advance a remote command interior. By the way, from a household network new non-polluting Mercedes-Benz are charged for 8 hours. At special stations with high-voltage socket connections – for 3 hours.
