Car Buyers Notebook, January 26, 2010
The Full-Speed Wheego Whip Life is scheduled to be in attendance at the Washington Auto Show today, christened as the first affordable electric car. The Full-Speed Wheego Whip Life runs on Lithium Ion Batteries and can reportedly run 100 miles on a single charge. It takes about 8 hours to recharge on a standard house outlet.
The target price for the Full-Speed Wheego Whip Life will be $32,000 but with a Federal Tax Credit of $7,500, the car will only go for $24,500. Features include remote keyless entry, air conditioning, and an MP3 stereo system. The Low-Speed version of the Wheego Whip will be available for test drives at the Washington Auto Show in the ride-and-drive area.
