First Look at the Caterham V! Ultra Light EV at 1190KG!!
#Caterham represents simplicity of driving in its purest form. But now, that same DNA of simplicity is spawning a sister #sportscar — one trying to start true to that simplicity, while charging on boldly into the #electriccar future.
And that is this - the Caterham V, for now a concept. But as you’ll see, one that doesn’t seem far away from production at all!
But for Caterham lovers, the idea of moving toward electric is very scary - even more so than for us petrolhead lovers of the traditional ICE CAR. Because this shift spells not only the removal of the noisy smelly but glorious manual combustion engine experience - but also the 60 year strong design of the Seven.
But Caterham say this is in addition to a 7, not in replacement of. A car for thrills, and the school run or grocery shop - with room for the kids!
“Simplify, then add lightness”
The ethos that created the original Lotus 7, and 60 years later still defines the Caterham 7. But now on the 50th year anniversary Caterham - is born the Caterham V - a fully electric lightweight sports car.
How true will it remain to Caterham’s original simplify/add lightness motto?
For starters, we have a target weight of 1190kg for the production car. To put this in perspective- the upcoming porsche Boxster ev is rumoured to weight 1700KG. So at least in weight - Caterham staying true to their values!
Inside we have a single 200KW motor, driving only the rear wheels, and a 55KW battery pack producing 268BHP and 0-60 in 4.5 secs! Power to weight somewhat equivalent to a 992 Carrera. The battery gives range of 249miles.
For now with this Concept Car it’s far too early to say if they’re right - but what I can show you today — is every technical detail that makes the V what it is, including it’s electric internals, and the resulting figures of weight, performance and range. And every detail inside and out!
