Proton Saga EV Concept

Proton a preview of all electric version of the Proton Saga sedan University Putra Malaysia, Serdang during proton Exora - Making "seminar organized by SAE International earlier this week." Proton "is definitely a name of understanding the car! One might expect that this plug -in electric vehicles co-development of the Detroit Electric, which is an agreement for electric vehicles, has produced the Proton GEN, 2 protons and personalities for some d-overseas market in Detroit Electric brand. But instead, what you see above is a project done at home with the help of unnamed suppliers and partners.

This means that, unlike the Detroit Electric E46, ((based on Proton Gen 2) and Detroit Electric E63 based on the character of protons), the (officially, the Proton Saga Power Association Green function approach for now) expected to return for the local market, although car manufacturers was very gentle about the possible launch date. Can last for years.
Emission-Proton Saga EV display comes with a 168hp (125kW) electric motor, brushless DC, coupled with a 5-speed manual transmission. This is a 20kWh Polymer rechargeable lithium-ion (12 separate batteries stored in the trunk). Since the battery is almost non-existent space truck, but it is normal that created the concept of electric cars on a chassis originally based for a regular internal combustion engine and fuel tank. A passenger car production in mind should be more careful next to the batteries.

According to Proton Saga EV can go 0-100 km / h in 10.1 seconds, a top speed of 161 km / h with a range of 109 miles on a full charge. Both the Detroit Electric E46 and E63 will be a 150 kW motor axial magnetic flux instead of belonging.

There's more! The Green "mobile" is also re-generative braking and main power, in addition to the packaging integrated pan-management system (BCMU), a plug-in charger (with a wall outlet) of air and an In-Vehicle screen display shows various information about the features of electric vehicles. Sources also announced that Proton has plans to build an electric minivan Exora, and is currently working on some hybrid vehicles, and for research and development.

Since the proton has taken the trouble to produce a fully functional Saga EV concept, I know that this is a matter of time until we actually see the proton produced electric cars in the street, but will continue to reduce emissions not only vehicles. If an infrastructure ready outside, this is involved in something the government to support private outside the sector.
