An unexpected novelty on the Russian market: an electric microcar with the funny name Yoyo will arrive at us. These are products of the XEV company, which is officially registered in Italy, but has production facilities and an engineering center in China. XEV Yoyo has already been certified in Russia and Vehicle Type Approval (OTTS) was issued in mid-October, but only for a limited batch of 150 cars. Now the distributor, the Russian company Quattro Motors Rus, has announced the imminent start of sales, which a year ago start of delivery Peugeot scooter.

The XEV Yoyo microcar debuted in 2018 and had its European premiere at the Paris Motor Show a month ago. However, sales have not yet started in either China or the Old World. According to the documents, this is a heavy quadricycle of the L7 class and conceptually is an electric analogue of Smart. With a length of 2495mm and a width of 1500mm, the two-seater car has a steel frame and 3D printed plastic exterior panels.

The rear axle is equipped with a synchronous electric motor with a nominal power of 7.5 kW (10 hp) and a peak power of 14 kW (19 hp). At the stern is also installed a lithium-iron-phosphate traction battery with a capacity of 10.3 kWh, consisting of three blocks, each of which can be removed through the hatch in the rear of the machine: here’s how a quick replacement of a discharged battery with the same charge is implemented. The cruising range at full load is 150 km and the top speed is 80 km / h.

The XEV Yoyo is equipped with climate control, ABS, multimedia system (also replaces the instrument panel), sunroof, power windows and keyless entry system. The empty weight of the machine is 620 kg. The Russian OTTS lists the Shandong Lichi New Energy Automobile manufacturing plant of China’s Shandong Province. The distributor promises to start sales “very soon”, but the price has not yet been announced. It is not even available in China, but in Europe the company XEV intends to sell Yoyo for … 12,690 euros! This is 772 thousand rubles at the official exchange rate. Probably, a similar price is worth waiting with us.
