Green motorists out there will have another choice of what car to drive with the announcement that the Microcar-ZENN, an electric car manufactured in France and developed in partnership with Canada’s Feel Good Cars is coming to the UK.Available in both a two and four seater form, the car offers speeds of around 20mph, and a range of 60 miles on a single charge. Furthermore, because of its green credentials owners will also avoid having to pay the congestion charge meaning it will be ideal for commuting around the capital.
Microcar-ZENN’s importer says it offers many of the features that have up till now been missing from the sub-£8000 EV market, including regenerative braking and optional lithium ion battery power.
