AvtoVAZ has handed over a batch of 33 LADA e-Largus electric vans to the capital's "Mosgortrans". The new vehicles will be used for prompt servicing and repair of surface urban transport facilities, which, according to the manufacturer, will improve the efficiency and reliability of the megacity's transport system.
LADA e-Largus is equipped with a permanent-magnet synchronous electric motor with peak output of up to 120 kW. Energy is stored in two traction lithium-ion batteries located in the engine compartment and under the floor of the cargo bay. This layout made it possible to preserve the full cargo space volume of 2,540 liters. The range on a single charge reaches 320 km.
The developers paid special attention to digital integration: a display is installed on the instrument panel, showing the key operating parameters of the electric powertrain and the vehicle's control systems.
It is noted that the LADA e-Largus has become the first Russian electric vehicle with deep localization of components. The battery packs, as well as the control and thermal management systems, were fully developed and manufactured in Russia.
