The Geely McCar electric/hybrid car packs an electric scooter in the back
While the biggies of the automobile industry like Honda and Ford have been scratching their heads all this while, trying to put together an ideal eco-friendly car for the urban market, Chinese manufacturer and owner of Volvo, Geely, came up with a tiny little car that could work just right for city use! This little car showed up at the Shanghai Motor Show and managed to steal a sack full of hearts with people admiring its practicality and functionality. The impressive car called the Geely McCar is available as both, an electric and a plug-in hybrid. The 12kWh battery version has a range of 93 miles, a top speed of 52mph and takes six hours to recharge while the 8kWh plug-in hybrid goes 31 miles on electric power and 373 miles on petrol and battery, with a top speed of 80mph, taking two hours to recharge.
