A future without traffic jams

Why is CityCar electric?
1. Electric motors have a power density four times higher than an internal combustion engine. The
specific power of the electric motors is 5 kW / kg, while that of the internal combustion engine is
1.25 kW / kg. For example, an electric motor weighing 10.5 kg delivers 50 kW, and an internal
combustion engine weighing 60 kg delivers 75 kW.
2. The resource (mileage) of the electric motor is 10 million km.
3. The maximum torque is from 0 to the very top, and the internal combustion engine has on average
only half of the maximum torque.
4. With the same power, the electric motor with the controller will be in the same price range as
the internal combustion engine.
Why does the electrically powered CityCar not use batteries to store energy, but uses
petrol?
An energy reserve of 85 kW * h, as, for example, in a Tesla Model S will have a mass of a battery of
540 kg and its cost will be $ 45,000. In CityCar in the supercar class it will have an energy
reserve of 85 kW * h weighing 130 kg (of which 30 kg is the mass of gasoline) and the cost of a
generator plus an internal combustion engine with a gas tank will be $ 10,000.
Why is the CityCar body 3D printed?
The CityCar 3D printed body reduces the weight of the finished body by half and the number of parts
by 35 times. And an example of this is LSEV - the world's first serial electric car, printed on a 3D
printer, link:

Why does CityCar emphasize that in the class of hypercars it can accelerate to 100 km
/ h in 2 seconds?
To showcase the maximum potential of the Electric CityCar. And take the lead in cars that can
accelerate to 100 km / h in 2 seconds.
Today, Tesla Roadster 2020, Lightning LS-218, Audi PB18 e-tron can accelerate to 100 km / h in 2
seconds.
Why is the CityCar roll cage made from steel tubes and not the sheet steel used in
the automotive industry? Why is steel used for pipes of grade 30HGSA?
Pipes made of steel grade 30HGSA have a strength three times higher than sheet steel, which is used
in the automotive industry, respectively, a roll cage made of pipes will be three times lighter. In
addition, these steels are in the same price category.
Why now?
The number of cars is constantly increasing, because of this, traffic jams in big cities only grow.
And this is already impossible to avoid.
Why is the market ready?
There are already spare parts on the market, technologies that are cheaper and superior to the
current ones.
Why will customers stick with the new proposal?
Clients can move safely, comfortably, economically without traffic jams in big cities.
What is the advantage of CityCar over other products? Need to advertise CityCar?
There are a wide variety of products. But only a few relate to fashion, which are important to
buyers, because this shows their status. These include watches, clothes, shoes. What kind of
smartphone does he use and what car he drives. Such products do not need advertising, because belong
to the image and perform the role of self-promotion. Citycar refers to fashion products, which gives
the advantage of being self-promoted.
