Minsk “Motovelozavod” showed a prototype of the M1NSK four-wheeler (it has no name yet). Despite this being a four-wheeler, it must be registered and driving in category B is required. The prototype of Belarusian-Chinese origin has not yet been certified, but the local publication Avtobiznes has already been able to inspect the car.
It weighs about 463 kg, the wheels are small, only 12 inches, the declared ground clearance is 170 mm. The speed is limited to 60 km/h. The 4 kW engine is located in the rear, under the trunk, and in the front is an 8 kW . lithium-ion batteryh. Disc brakes front, rear – drum.
The power reserve is declared small – only 120-150 kilometers, the car is charged from a household outlet in 6-8 hours.
The saloon is a four-seater, it’s a bit crowded inside, but you can’t drive far. It is trimmed with eco-leather, there is a multimedia system, a selector for selecting driving modes, a rear view camera, electric windows, air conditioning, an armrest, cup holders, and under the seat there is a niche for storing small things.
The trunk is small, but if you fold down the backrest of the rear seat, the luggage space increases.
The four-wheeler accelerates quickly, but generally rides briskly, notes the publication’s journalist. This is still a prototype, they assured it at the factory, they will finish it – and it will start faster and the power reserve can be increased.
The preliminary price of such a machine is $ 9,900, but they promise a discount once the four-wheeler goes through the stages of localization and assembly. You can order it now with a 50% deposit.
The four-wheeler is intended for delivery services and couriers, but can also be used as an affordable urban means of transport to go to work, for example.
