Since the 16th of May ë-AUTO may be reserved on-line. Now 3 hybrid-electric prototypes are available - a microvan, cross coupe and fourgon models. The ё-microvan and ё-cross-coupe, for example, both weight 700 kg, will feature a 0 to 100 km/h acceleration time of 8 seconds and fuel-economy of 3.5 liters/100 km. All three vehicles have a maximum speed of 130 km/h. For the first day of sale about 52 000 people order ë-AUTO. The maximum price will be 450,000 rubles (11,250 euro). The first car will acquire its owner in the second half of the next year.
I don't likle the design... Maybe if they managed to change it a bit, I would buy the car with great pleasure...but also definitely not in this color...But well, they are pretty cheap, so probably more and more people will buy them. We'll see, and then decide for ourselves whether to buy one or not.
I think it's great that such ё-auto is on sale and people can buy it. It's quite small and simple but, to my mind, is very convinient and attractive. More than that, the price isn't sky-high. So, I'd like to buy such a car
It's a HYBRID-electro car, so, YES, you'll need petrol. But the internal combustion engine is smaller, so fuel consumption will be twice or even thrice less.
