Following a string of consecutive hikes in the price of fuel, consumers across the country are looking for alternate modes of transportation. Because there is no CNG available and gasoline prices are so high, the only choice left is to buy an electric vehicle.
Small hatchbacks that have an incredible fuel average are also a wonderful source, but what if you could purchase a new electric SUV at a price that’s lower than what we charge for our Cultus?
The Chinese automobile manufacturer “Dongfeng” has made this a reality by introducing a compact all-electric SUV at a price that is lower than that of our Cultus. It is an A-segment crossover and it comes with pure electric terrain. The name of the vehicle is “Nano Box.”
