The Thunder Power Sedan is a vehicle that appears to be Taiwan's take on Elon Musk's Tesla. This vehicle is available with two different configurations, including 230 kW and 320 Nm of torque and another with 320 kW and 560 Nm of torque. Both cars draw in their power from a 125 kWh battery pack, which offers an impressive range of 650 km.
The top speed of the vehicles is claimed to be 210 and 250 km/h respectively.
Don't expect to see the Thunder Power Sedan on the streets anytime soon however, as the manufacturer is aiming to infiltrate the European market by 2017, the Chinese market by 2018 and the USA after that. An SUV, compact car and crossover could all be spawned out of this promising vehicle.
