FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: Does the car need a plug? What is the range/top speed? How long will the battery last?
A: No plug required, because the battery recharges during braking and directly from the engine. Range/speed is the same as a normal car: Unlimited/Over 100mph. And finally, the battery should last as long as the car. But just in case something goes wrong, the Manufacturers offer 8-year warranties.
