Top SpeedOver 65, I don't really have anywhere to drive faster than
that.
Acceleration0-60 just under just under 20 seconds, with some work on
shifting I think I could get it a little faster. this seems kind of
slow... but it seems really peppy to drive, for some reason
from 25-45 mph seems slow but up to and past that seems
faster.
Range20 Miles (32 Kilometers)
I am hoping to increase range after I get a brake dragging
problem fixed.
Watt Hours/Mile550 Wh/Mile
