A new three-seat electric city car has gone on sale in the UK and Sweden, targeting urban drivers.

Uniti One

Priced from £15,100 (including the Plug-in Car Grant) in the UK and €17,760 in Sweden, the Swiss-designed and UK-engineered Uniti One has been designed to bring a compact footprint that provides room for three while offering boot space of 155 litres, rising to 760 litres with the rear seats folded flat, and a kerb weight of just 600kg.

The Uniti One features a 68hp motor, driving the rear wheels and bringing a 0-62mph time of 9.9 seconds and a top speed of 120km/h (75mph).

The lithium-ion battery is offered in a choice of two sizes – 12kWh or 24kWh – offering ranges of 83 and 186 miles respectively. Charging from 20% to 80% capacity can be carried out in 17 minutes with a 50kW CCS charger, falling to nine minutes for the smaller battery.

Orders are open now to buyers in northern Europe, with customers placing an order before the end of November 2019 securing a place in Uniti’s exclusive ‘Founders Club’, entitling them to a host of exclusive benefits, including free software upgrades and enhancements for life. First deliveries are planned in Sweden and the UK for mid-2020.
