About Spirit Función Principal: Coche Eléctrico Urbano
Texto do Libro: Spirit é un coche eléctrico urbano compacto deseñado para rúas urbanas conxestionadas. A carrocería mide 2245 por 1290 por 1570 milímetros, o que facilita o aparcamento e o paso por rúas estreitas. Un chasis semiportante e unha estrutura tipo gaiola protexen o habitáculo dos pasaxeiros. Catro suspensións independentes e catro freos de disco garanten unha condución estable e confortable. O motor conta cunha potencia máxima de 15 quilowatts. As pezas de revestimento interior e exterior están fabricadas en plástico reciclable e conformadas por moldeo por inxección, o que mantén o vehículo lixeiro e reduce o consumo enerxético.
