The world’s first unlimited mileage electric vehicle is here
Electric vehicle services provider Better Place, in association with French car manufacturer Renault, has launched Renault Fluence Z.E., the first ‘unlimited mileage’ electric car, at its new centre in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Initial delivery of the Renault Fluence Z.E. with Better Place mobility services will take place in the fourth-quarter of this year. The Renault Fluence Z.E. will include as standard features, climate control, navigation and energy management services via the in-car software system, radio-CD, alloy wheels, electric mirrors, 4 electric windows, central locking, a state-of-the-art lithium-ion switchable battery and much more equipment. “Fluence Z.E. will be the first electric car with virtually no range limit, thanks to the ability to switch the battery in the Better Place stations,” stated Philippe Klein, Renault EVP of planning and programmes. Better Place and partner DONG Energy will work together to leverage Denmark’s 20% energy production from wind turbines to power the Better Place network in order to charge the Renault Fluence Z.E.
