Protoscar Lampo 2 prototype now out in the open




The Protoscar Lampo 2 for those that have not heard of this car, its a new electric prototype car from Protoscar. This electric car is a bit of a ground breaker as it utilizes two electric motors to give the Lampo 2 4-wheel drive. I'm starting to think that electric cars are getting much sexier now with designs like this and the likes of the Venturi Fétish.



Quote from the article:
Comparing it to the first version unveiled back in 2009 at the Geneva Motor Show, the new version has been further optimized in order to reach a world-class energy consumption of less than 100Wh/km-ton under real conditions. Also, according to the manufacturer, the Lampo 2 comes with “quick-charging” capability (up to 100 km range extension in just 10 minutes charging time).

The Lampo 2 carries two electric motors (allowing it to operate as a four-wheel drive with variable torque between front and rear axle for optimal handling, safety and efficiency), capable to deliver a total output of 300 kW (equivalent to 408 HP), 640 Nm (over 50% more than its predecessor!) and over 30 kWh of Lithium-Ion battery capacity. With these numbers it can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5 seconds, has a top speed of 200 km/h and a total range of 200 km.
