Bollinger B1 Electric 4x4

It’s not a thing of beauty but this is a 100% electric 4x4 built in New York. I’ll have to convert the specs to new money.

It’s certainly interesting.

350Km range isn't bad, but they will have to up that to around 500km's

Would a Solar panel on the roof be feasible to try and get whatever little power back into the batteries whilst driving in the sun?

[XJ Junkie]

Well it’s got regenerative braking but I don’t know if that’s been factored into the 350km range or not. It would be interesting to learn what it’s offroad range would be.

I wonder how they got round the 'Bump' issue.
E-Vehicles don't like bumps.
They must have rubberised & suspended the battery box, or something...

Derick , Quack here on the forum have on numerous occasions spelt out his concerns about battery powered cars safety features. With him involved in motor sport he is up to date with even F1 battery power. I have to agree with him that you sit on a bomb.

During a serious crash you can have a few thousand ampere melting away stuff in seconds. Seems that the second Tesla went up in flames after a crash killing its occupants.

That is not something I would take on a river trip.

My fuel rage was reduced from 530 km to 80 km in 60 km

It doesn’t use fuel. It’s electric

Agreed Owen. It’d be pretty cool to test one out
