The developers claim that the "Electro-Loaf" has not lost its all-terrain qualities and is expected to be in demand on tourist routes in nature reserves, mountainous areas, and closer to the end of the year, the development of the same electric car in the body of a convertible with the same tourist orientation should be completed. The electric "Loaf" accelerates to urban 60 km / h in just 12 seconds, its maximum speed does not exceed 80 km / h, and the distance it can travel without recharging is 180 km.
