Eco Factor: Zero-emission car powered by electric engine.
While cars powered by solar electricity still remain a designer’s wild dream, car manufacturers know the importance of good old electricity in greening our planet. One group working on electric cars for a better future is the Tazarri Group, which has finally released the specs of its much awaited Tazarri Zero electric car.
The car will be powered by a 15KW (20bhp), 150Nm electric motor which should shoot the car from standstill to 30mph in a little under 5 seconds. The rear-wheel drive car will depend on a 142kg, 12.3KWh battery pack for a top speed of 80km/h and a maximum range of 140Km. The car would be launched sometime later this year with an automatic transmission supporting four driving modes – race, rain, standard and economy.
The Dark Side:
The company claims that only 3000 cars would be rolled out in the first year, each bearing a price tag of about £16,200. Keeping the cost and the number to be produced, we have to say that Tazarri is targeting rich people in need of a green car to display their eco-affection.

The exterior looks good. The features are promising. It’s just too bad that the company will only be producing 3000 cars on the first year.
wow. the car design is absoluteely amazing. the features are quite cool.
