Wheego Electric Cars unveils LiFe EV

Electric cars have never been reliable enough in the past to be driven on highways. Low speeds, short ranges and similar drawbacks have kept these little environment-friendly vehicles of the roads for long. Well, the dawn of a new breed of electrics is here and in a short while we’ll have a whole lot of EVs out on the road, pushing out gas-guzzlers. One of these is the LiFe. This car by Wheego Electric Cars, an EV manufacturer based in Atlanta, is quicker than ever and has a great range too. With a 100 mile range and a top speed of 70 mph, the LiFe is ideal for both urban use as well as highway use. The car was named after the battery, a lithium-iron. These batteries are also cheaper and moer reliable than lithium-ion batteries.

Complete with driver and passenger airbags, anti-lock brakes, air conditioning, and power windows and locks, the LiFe is sure to show up on roads faster than expected.
