Danuta Pavilenene, BC, Vilnius, 27.12.2012.Print version
In 2012, electric car Electron Twingo was developed in Siauliai city. It was presented in the fair Siauliai 2012, reports LETA/ELTA, citing Siauliu krastas.

The quality of this car is as high as of the cars produced in factories. However, the price is much lower, it costs around LTL 30,000 (EUR 8,688).

 

Developer of the car, Head of PB Group company Donatas Skulskis says that this tiny car is driven by 15-kilowatt power unit and it can acquire the speed of 80 kilometers per hour. The company is planning mass production of such cars.

 

"We are already halfway to certification. We may separately certify each such vehicle. I think that we will do this at the beginning. Also we may certify the manufacture of small series production. No one had done it before in Lithuania. However, we will have to talk with Renault dealer or the factory itself for the latter authorization," said Skulskis. He also claims that there are buyers who are so eager to get a car that they are already "breaking our doors".
