South Korean car manufacturer CT&T has announced it will be opening a manufacturing plant in Fiji (of all places!) for their little electric cars.As per the company's website, the eZone is basically a fancy golf cart that can go 70km or 110km on a single charge (depending on the battery pack you get) and can only reach 55 kph top speed. Still, according to their video, it only costs $5 a month maintenance (no mention of your electricity bill), has zero emissions and uses zero oil.
Seeing as Fiji is neighbours of New Zealand and Australia perhaps we'll be seeing these little buzz boxes on our streets sooner than any other production EV, just so long as they stay out of my way in my iMiEV. Thanks for the heads-up ABC.
Check out the promotional video below and try not to cringe at the odd choice of voice over talent.
