Bollinger Motors, an electric vehicle startup headquartered in Michigan, released the latest versions of B 1 electric SUV and B2 electric pickup truck last month.
Bollinger Motors is an electric vehicle startup company founded in new york (now located in Michigan), and has been developing electric vehicle platforms for more than four years.
They first introduced the pure electric SUV model Bollinger B 1, and then launched the pickup version Bollinger B2. These two models are not as full of technology as other new electric vehicles, but adopt extremely simple shapes.
The design goal is practical. The exterior and interior are made of metal and glass, which seems to have returned to the era of Willis decades ago.
The shapes of the two models are mainly straight lines, and the overall shape is square and domineering, which conforms to Americans' preference for off-road vehicles and pickup trucks, and the rivets, hinges, buttons and other mechanical parts of the body are exposed.
The instruments, buttons and switches in the interior are also full of retro atmosphere, and the overall feeling is very rough.
Bollinger B 1 and BollingerB2 are equipped with 120kWh battery pack and front and rear dual motors, with maximum power of 6 15 horsepower, maximum torque of 900Nm, 0-96km/h acceleration time of 4.5 seconds, and maximum speed of161km/. ..
In terms of off-road performance, the ground clearance between the two cars is 380mm, and they are equipped with a high-low two-speed transfer case with a load capacity of 2359kg and a traction capacity of 3402kg. The approach angle of bollinger band B 1 is 52 degrees, and the departure angle is 43 degrees; the approach angle of bollinger band B2 is 52 degrees, and the departure angle is 28 degrees. From the parameter point of view, the performance is better.
The doors, roof, glass and rear seats of the other two models are detachable and very practical. Later, the company released a truck chassis based on B2 model, aiming to enter the field of electric commercial vehicles. B2 truck chassis provides single-row and double-row cab, and users can choose closed or open cab tailgate. It is reported that. B2 truck chassis will provide different wheelbase, different body length, and can be derived from a variety of models, including trucks, cranes, trailers and so on.
Recently, this company announced a patent to the world-storage direct-acting door.
Everyone knows that electric cars and hybrid cars are usually heavy, which comes from heavy battery packs. These battery packs also take up space.
Although pure electric vehicles are still equipped with heavy batteries, at least there are no traditional powertrain components. Now, Bollinger is using these extra spaces to increase the cargo capacity of vehicles.
Just like a sports car with a rear-drive mid-engine, Brin's B 1 and B2 trucks have two storage boxes, which can be collectively called "trunk". When the trunk is opened, it is like the hatch of a ship. Bollinger's unique innovation lies in the opening in the middle of the vehicle, just like the front and rear openings. They call it a direct storage gate.
This unique place was recently granted a patent by the US Patent and Trademark Office, allowing B 1 to carry items with a length of 13 feet, while B2 can accommodate anything with a length of 16 feet.
Even if you don't plan to load longer items with bollinger bands, the trunk space of any model can load 8.6 cubic feet of goods, and in addition, the front of each model can also load goods.
However, the starting price of B 1 and B2 is $65,438+0.25 million (about 880,000 RMB). According to this pricing method, I really doubt that the buyers of these cars really need to load so many goods at ordinary times, or do they run around all over the wood? I don't think bullinger is attractive to those rich people. In fact, time will tell.
