Main reason I bought the City-el was it went 50, accelerates like a "bat" on hills; even though that vehicle was built for 35 top, lower voltage and sluggish acceleration.
For in-town use it is ideal! Pushed to 45 and still climbing- my C-el wobbled with the original tire. This EMC3 has the opposite stance than the C-el (delta- 2 rear, 1 front) so it is just plain built to handle speed to begin with.
And you never know- someone may boost it to make an outstanding EV dragster!
My other EVs are in the 20s or 30s, so the 60 requirement isn't mine
The City-el is a targa/convertible but it is a 1 person microcar. The EMC3 makes a lot more useful sense to me!
