Wiki Subforum Index: Electric Cars and Trucks

Doug_G · Jul 23, 2013

This is an index to all the electric car and truck models discussed in this section of the TMC forums. It is not intended to be a comprehensive list of all EVs. For that please see Vehicles - Plug In America. We also plan to add a separate index for electric motorcycles and similar vehicles.

Feedback and suggestions for additional vehicles to index are most welcome.

This is a work-in-progress. The section moderators are attempting to reorganize this section because it's getting a bit chaotic!

BEV = Battery Electric Vehicle (Pure EV)
EREV/PHEV = Extended Range / Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle

Cars in Current Production

BEV Nissan Leaf
BEV The New RAV4 EV
BEV Ford Focus EV
BEV Ford C-Max Energi
EREV/PHEV GM Chevy Volt
EREV/PHEV Opel Ampera (also see Chevy Volt)

Could you please add :
BEV Renault Kangoo Z.E.
BEV Renault Fluence
BEV Renault Zoe
BEV Renault Twizy (that one is difficult to put in a class, technically speaking it is a quadricycle)

They are all still in production (the Zoe is only starting) and do sell pretty well in Europe (apart from the Fluence).

Could you please add: Tesla

BEV Ford C-Max Energi

The C-Max Energi is a PHEV, not BEV. There is also the Ford Fusion Energi PHEV. Ford Fusion Energi

Chevy Spark?

eMileage · Jul 24, 2013

Are you planning to eventually have a separate thread for each vehicle? Here are a few more...

BEV Mitsubishi iMiEV (and variants)
BEV Fiat 500e
BEV Honda Fit EV
BEV SmartED
PHEV Toyota Prius PHV

BEV BMW MiniE
BEV CommuterCars Tango
BEV Aptera 2e

Doug_G · Jul 24, 2013

Thanks for the help everyone. If there's anything else I missed, please pile on!

It may be too much, but what about a general thread for Conversion cars?

EdA · Jul 24, 2013

I think it would be nice to add a columns for range (or estimated range) and price (or estimated price).
Doesn't Mercedes have something in the works too? Or is that the SMART ED?

There's a whole subforum for conversions, and it's not very active.

If you compile the data, I'll put together the table.

qwk · Jul 24, 2013

Active-e?

Doug_G · Jul 24, 2013

Added... that's a weird case because it's not really a production vehicle. Like the MiniE it's a limited duration field trial, and the cars will be taken off the road at the end.

qwk · Jul 24, 2013

Then you might as well add the EV 1 to that list. Also the Nissan Prairie and Altra.

Ampster · Jul 24, 2013

Toyota RAV4EV (2nd generation)
Limited production of 2600 vehicles started in 2012. Sold only in California, but at least 10 owned in other states. Tesla drivetrain.

vtrux?

BEV Electric Motorcycles

not sure where you would put the TORQ Roadster by Epic (Motorcyle? Car?) but it deserves to be on the list as a current production BEV vehicle.

clea · Jul 24, 2013

Would it be useful to add a link to the PluginAmerica's list of cars as well. http://www.pluginamerica.org/vehicles

Doug_G · Jul 24, 2013

Added EV1. Doh. Wasn't really a good thread on that one, though.

New Rav4 EV already listed.

Nissan Prairie and Altra - can't find any threads on these. Make a thread and I'll add it.

Vtrux - doh! I've actually driven a couple of these... how could I forget that one?

This is an index to this section of the TMC forums. I'll mention the list in the first post though.

I've put it on the list, but it should really be moved over to the upcoming Index to Electric Motorcycles.

GSP · Jul 24, 2013

I suggest adding the following. All were built in series production, and in my opinion they were significant.

Obsolete Cars (no longer in production, or never made it to production)
EREV/PHEV = Audi Duo
EREV/PHEV = Lohner Porsche Lohner-Porsche - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
BEV = Honda EV Plus
BEV = Baker Electric
BEV = Detroit Electric
BEV = Solectria Force
BEV = AC Propulsion Tzero (was not production built, but VERY significant)

In current production:
BEV = Bolder EV step van. http://www.boulderev.com/
BEV = Smith Edison truck
BEV= Smith Newton truck
BEV = Optare Versa bus. Optare Versa EV - YouTube
BEV = BYD K9 bus
BEV = Proterra bus

vfx · Jul 24, 2013

I am oddly offended by the word "obsolete" for my Roadster. How about "production suspended" or "discontinued".

The PIA list is incredibly comprehensive. Why duplicate it? Perhaps ask Chad for permission to copy it with full credit?
