Motors In Wheels

The SIM-LEI

In Tokyo there has been a car show. There has been many electric cars in the show but nothing like this one. The SIM-LEI can travel about 200 miles in a single charge and can go from 0 to 60 in 4.8 seconds. Believe it or not the performance comes from the wheels and not under the hood. So it has 4 motors, 1 in each wheel. That is a total of 260 kilowatts to use. If this car ever gets mass produced, the car cost will be around 32,000.
