SIM-LEI aero EV achieves 84Wh/km @ 100kph - 207 miles on a ~24kWh pack! Cd is 0.19
This is a great achievement:
http://www.blogcdn.com/green.autoblo.../03/sim-ev.jpg (click on image for link) It would be great to see it from a few other angles. I sure hope my CarBEN EV is this good (or better?)! |
The Nissan Leaf got ~173Wh/mile on the same test, but this is impressive none the less.
Aerodynamically, the one odd thing is that ridge on the beltline / door handles? That and the (apparently) holey rims... I'd love to see the back of this car -- I mean in a good way! ;) |
Someone at ABG (David Martin) found these pictures!

The back is so ugly.
|
So is the front! Doesn't leave much, does it... ?
|
Could it be this is only a mule, made to be ugly ?
Let's mod this : - relocate the lights to the front fenders - ditch the bulges with the door handles - lower the window line so it doesn't look as massive - extend the windows aft , glazing the cargo area - clean up the mess of different design lines on the rear - full aft wheel covers |

I see an ugly car, made nice by the stats, just like mine :)

Let's see ...
Crude, but you get the idea. |
~135Wh/mile (84Wh/km) at a sustained 62/mph100kph -- that is the *best* performance of a 4 seat electric car that I know of; or any car for that matter.
