EDGE6
// Self-made electric motors - the first electric car!
With the EDGE6, an electric car was built for the first time that is powered by electric motors developed in-house. These can impress with 40kW peak power with a weight of less than 4kg. Despite the 43kg “light” battery pack and a strong increase in performance, the weight could be reduced slightly.
