The production of new cars will be organized at the facilities of the "Moskvich" car plant, where the company has leased a production line, having previously re-equipped it. With a planned production volume of 30 thousand cars per year, the plant is counting on steady demand.
To date, the "Atom" brand already has 105 thousand pre-orders from individuals and organizations, which indicates a high interest in the model. Prices for the electric car will vary from 2 to 4 million rubles.
As for the technical characteristics, the "Atom" electric car will be equipped with an electric motor on the rear axle with a capacity of 205 hp. It will be equipped with a lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 77 kWh, which will provide a range of up to 500 km.
