(VIDEO) Silex Power Chreos, a surprising electric sedan!

17 February 2013

Here is a concept from Silex Power, a company based in Malta specializing in green-tech. Named, Chreos, this impressive 5.42m electric sedan has a specs sheet that leaves the Tesla Model S far behind!

But before we talk numbers, let’s have a look to its design, neo-retro lines with a front end that recalls some Alfa Romeo such as the 33, no radiator grille because, since it is electric the Chreos doesn’t need it and then it improves aerodynamics...

About the figures, the Silex Power Chreos receives four in-wheel engines with impressive battery-packs placed on the axles, for a total power of 640hp and 4400Nm of torque!

Despite its 2200kg, the 0 to 100kph would take only 2.9 seconds while the batteries (capacity not revealed) would allow a 1000km range (at 125kph) with a recharge in 10 minutes thanks a technology called "hypercharge".

As to answer the question whether this Chreos will ever be produced, for now there isn’t a rolling prototype but Silex Power will soon market an electric SUV (specs will be revealed shortly), that brings some credibility to the company !
