We have heard of very many electric cars before, but some of them are not powerful enough, powerful ones don't give you any range or just prototypes that never make it to market. However, Mercedes is planning on making it a production car. Electric SLS AMG E-cell provides really good power, a decent range of 125 miles and really good looks of its fire breathing brother.
This electric car features not one engine like its brother but four motors. Each motor is powering its own wheel which makes the whole system very powerful. How powerful? No, it won't give you more power than ordinary Mercedes SLS (not that this supercar can be called ordinary), but its electric brother gives you up to 528 hp. The petrol version outputs 563 hp.
Having a lot of horses under the bonnet is a good thing but there is also such a parameter as torque (it is responsible for car's acceleration basically). And here our electric SLS AMG monster beats the base petrol model by more than 30% producing 649 ft/lbs as opposed to 479 ft/lbs from the stock car.
Everybody knows that placing an electric motor in a car, four of them in this case, you need to carry around a huge weight of batteries in your car. And this one is carrying as much as 880 lbs more weight than the stock model. Experts say that this addition to the weight killed the car's handling and steering, but Mercedes promise that they will solve these problems when the electric SLS AMG hits auto salons.
