Hi everyone! First of all, I’m new here and this will be my first post ☺ Secondly, I have pretty exciting news for EV fans! Read further  First electric off-road car called “OSCar eO” is being built at the moment and is going to participate in the Dakar rally raid 2012 to win it. This is the first time when electric off-road car is going to participate in the Dakar rally raid and, in my opinion, is worth attention. Citation from “OSCar eO” website: “Designed and built with the unique eO drive-train technology in Latvia by a long-time race driver and engineer Andris Dambis from OSC. An evolution of the famously durable OSCar O3. 16 modules of powerful and durable battery packs from Winston Battery with combined voltage of 614 V and total energy of 61 kWh. Two powerful permanent magnet electric motors (with support for regenerative braking) of combined power of 180 kW nominal and 315 kW peak. Nominal torque 500 Nm, peak torque 800 Nm. Top speed of 140 km/h. Electricity generating shock absorbers developed by Donerre in cooperation with OSC.” Here’s a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GmEBcmpzks&feature=channel_video_title LIVE video from their workshop to follow how the car is being built: http://oscareo.lv/#live - BetaFlasher |
