it just came out, runs on natural gas (goodbye electricity, hydrogen, diesel, gasoline) low emission / 2,5 liters / 100 kms ... read ==>

it's over there

Natural gas fuel?
* Natural gas at the pump? a new choice in service stations.
* Gpl? there is 60% natural gas in it.
*City gas? Need a compressor, and a balèze tank.
* 13kg propane bottle? 2,5 l / 100km, but at what price? ...

Its production cost, if it was mass produced, is estimated at between 7.200 and 14.400 euros.

Is this a joke ??? What is this 100% margin of error? It is a shame for all the actors of the project !!

In addition it is the cost of production (unless the journalist mistakes) ... which means a sale price of at least 25 € ... It's always good to try to do econology but we should stop laughing at people's mouths ...

Well, I'm going to go into the news anyway, but hey ... once again I'm disappointed ... if it's not proof that the oil companies are holding the manufacturers by the C **** I don't know what it is ...

natural gas is not ambiguous, I think it sends less CO2 than LPG. After .. the distribution network? how do we recharge the tank? .... that's another story, they had to plan this.

Citroën had to take out the C3 with natural gas, the tank of which is recharged overnight in its garage ..... there was apparently no follow-up!

It's a European project so it should appear in the trade press ... to follow.

Some of the answers to your questions can be found on this page ...

Note that in the commentary, the wording "[...]the commercial version of the Clever should not be released for ten years.[...] always amazes me as much as in the context of the BMW Tubosteamer ... We cannot project anything at 10 years in the automobile, it is nonsense!

we are talking about it ... it has just been presented at 13:XNUMX pm FR.

It works well with natural gas, but we can consider that it is a prototype which is not ready to be put on sale.

It can be driven without a helmet; it underwent crash tests like a car. But will it see the light of day on the market and at an affordable price and what about the distribution network of CNG ...

There was a report on France 2 in the 13 p.m. newspaper.
The vehicle was not bodied.
It's bizzare, but it seems to me that I have already seen this vehicle several times in a petrol version ... It's not new, There are 3 or 4 reports on it on the Web.
The innovation would therefore only be the establishment of a bottle of natural gas as has been done for years in Italy ...

Exactly !!!

I saw that yesterday in one of my automotive magazines, the Carver!

So Clever / Carver, same fight

Why talk about 10 years when the base is approved?

in Belgium available for the modest sum of € 29950 excluding VAT
and without the options

yes but 6L / 100Km and 172g of CO2 / Km, that's a lot ...
especially for this template
