The car will be made available in four monotones and nine dual-tone colours. In the interior too, there will be an option to choose one in Orange and Gray colours.
In this, a 29.2 kWh battery will be given by the company. The battery will be a high-energy density lithium-ion battery which will be naturally air-cooled. It will take 10.30 hours to charge the battery from 10-100 per cent with a 15 amp plug, while it can be charged from 10 to 100 per cent in just 57 minutes via DC fast charging.
The EC3 will be powered by the company’s Permanent Magnet Syncrorier motor, giving the car 57 PS and 143 Newton meters of torque. The car can run at a maximum speed of 107 kilometres per hour through this motor. At the same time, the car will achieve a speed of 60 kilometres from zero in just 6.8 seconds.
