nano: Meet Nano, the world’s smallest electric car

Electric vehicles are slowly gaining ground in major car markets around the world and compact electric cars have got special attention from buyers as they are comparatively cheap and easy to maintain. Chinese carmaker Wuling HongGuang has been in news quite a lot lately for its compact offering Mini EV and now the company is making it to the headline again, thanks to its new electric car called Nano. Indians associate that name with Tata Motors’ smallest production car.
Wuling Nano is reportedly the world’s smallest electric car. Introduced at the 2021 Tianjin International Auto Show, the car looks similar to the Baojun E200, made by the same company. Designed to be used in a city, the car has a turning radius of less than four meters and can only seat two people. The car is 1,526mm wide, 1,616mm tall and 2,497mm in long, which makes it smaller than the Tata Nano.
The EV gets a 33PS electric motor that can generate a maximum torque of 85 Nm, enabling a top speed of 100 km/h. The motor draws its power from an IP67 lithium-ion battery with a 28 kWh capacity. The battery is placed under the seats. According to the company, the battery can be charged in 13.5 hours using a regular 220-volt domestic socket and with a 6.6 kW AC adapter, it can be charged in just 4.5 hours. The company also claims that the car can travel up to 305km on a single charge.
When it comes to safety, Wuling says the car gets an insulation fault alarm and short circuit protection for the battery. The EV also gets electronic stability control, electronic brake-force distribution, tyre pressure monitoring system, and reversing radar. In terms of features, it gets a keyless entry system and a 7-inch display.
