Dana 09.05.2017. year, in 10 hours, at Korzo 16, the presentation of the first electric car in the City of Rijeka, produced in the production incubator of the Rijeka Development Agency Porin, will be held.
The Rijeka Development Agency Porin d.o.o., as a support institution that provides systematic support in the start-up and further development of economic entities in the City of Rijeka, with the aim of creating as many new entrepreneurs as possible and creating new employment, recognized the importance of developing new entrepreneurial ideas and financed the project of electrification of cars. All installed components (except electric motors) are designed and manufactured in the production incubator of the Rijeka Development Agency Porin. The electrification of the car took a little less than a year and a lot of effort was invested in it in order to eventually get a unique vehicle produced by our own forces in the business incubator of the Rijeka Development Agency Porin. The vehicle has a 60kw engine with water cooling and a range of 100 km. The battery capacity is 20 kwh with an integrated smart monitoring and control system and the battery capacity drops to 80 % after 100,000 km. The charging time with the integrated charger is 5 h while at the fast charging station is 1 h. The cost of electricity per 100 km is 7-10 kn at a lower tariff. The vehicle has a propulsion system without the need for maintenance. When transforming into an electric car, a new company with two employees was founded. The whole project was carried out in cooperation with the City of Rijeka through a system of incentives and support to new companies.
