The advent of electrification is giving many small car manufacturers the opportunity; to get noticed. This is serious; the case, for example, of Vazirani Automotive , an Indian brand that in 2018 had unveiled the Shul concept at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, a hypercar equipped with a sophisticated hybrid powertrain . Apparently, this small builder intends to carve out a space in the electric supercar sector.

Indeed, the Indian brand presented its Ekonk which is characterized by a very important detail. According to the car manufacturer, in fact, it is; the most electric hypercar always light '. Not a small fact given that one of the problems of electric supercars is; just the additional weight due to the integration of the battery pack. According to the manufacturer, therefore, this car weighs only 738 kg.

The shared details are very scarce but it seems that this featherweight was also obtained thanks to a battery technology developed in house and related to the cooling system that is; by air. A job that would have already begun; after the presentation of the hybrid concept of 2018. Unfortunately, we do not know the capacity; of the accumulator, the maximum charging power and above all the autonomy. Furthermore, always with the aim of containing weight, it is extensive use of carbon has been made .

The powertrain, however, is; composed of a double electric motor which therefore also allows for all-wheel drive. The overall power reaches 538 kW (732 hp) . Excellent performance since it takes just 2.54 seconds to go from 0 to 100 km/h. The speed peak reaches 309 km/h. The weight/power ratio is; approximately 1: 1. Aerodynamics & egrave; has been studied very carefully to obtain a resistance coefficient the most; as low as possible.

The supercar has only one seat and does not offer driving aids. Will arrive & agrave; in production? At the moment it is not; also clear why & eacute; the manufacturer makes it clear that he is open to collaborations with other companies. In any case, the technology will be; used inside the new production version of the Shul model.
