FRANKFURT Tiny Germany independent manufacturer Loremo plans to launch an electric version of its lightweight car.
Starting in 2010, Loremo says it plans to sell an electrically powered version of a small car currently sold with a diesel engine.
A spokeswoman said Loremo plans to sell 10,000 vehicles in the first year of production.
“We hope then to increase that number,” the spokeswoman said.
The sub-compact 2+2 Loremo will weigh less than 600kg. Loremo intends to keep fuel consumption of the version powered by a two-cylinder diesel enegine below 2 liters per 100km.
Loremo’s retail price target for the diesel version is below 15,000 euros.
