At the climate talks in Paris , the French authorities has announced a global challenger which direct to make a small electrical car that will sell for under $ 7,500 .
In a interlingual rendition provided at the event , Madame Ségolène Royal , the French Minister of Ecology , Sustainable Development and Energy , explain that she wanted to “ create an electric cable car for the hoi polloi . ” She envisions the car as being little , light , fast - charging , and with an appearing that “ may not look like traditional galvanizing cars . ” She also pointed out that the € 7,000 Leontyne Price ticket — which is more or less $ 7,500 — should be an upper limit , and evoke that the price could be as low-down as $ 5,300 .
The plans would finally see France rolling out the crushed - toll motorcar around the country , in an attempt to careen more of the country ’s fomite fleet to electric . Royal also said that she hop-skip the competition would spur innovation — in fabric and battery developing , as well as newfangled mode of car use . “ In emerge country , the growing middle class means that there are more and more fomite being purchased and most of these cars are dodo fuel cars , ” she repoint out . “ This is a very attractive solution . ”
It ’s not the first programme to make an low-cost electric car . In India , the low - price electric vehicle known ase2ois on sale , which cost $ 15,000 when it first launched . It , however , have a poor reception from consumers . Whether France ’s exploit can do any better remains to be ensure .
