One of the disadvantages of having an electric car in Quito is that you will not deal with some of the steep hills of the city.

Preliminary tests have already showed the first results: although the vehicle does not emit greenhouse gases, when reaching the districts of Quito the energy consumption increases considerably, said Angel Portilla, professor of the EPN and director of Ccicev. This would be a problem, considering that the car has a range of 125 kilometers with a load of six to eight hours.

Moreover, the maximum speed of the car, according to the Green Wheel website is 100 km / h; These specifications make it a vehicle designed for the mobilization within cities, but not for interprovincial travels.
