PARIS – Sept 10, 2012: At the 2012 Paris Motor Show, SsangYong Motor Company will unveil its environmentally friendly electric car concept, e-XIV.

e-XIV (electric − eXciting user Interface Vehicle) is an EV concept within the SsangYong XIV design series, and a B-segment CUV (crossover utility vehicle). It is a ‘Range Extender EV’ electric car which is also self-chargeable by utilising a small petrol engine, thereby overcoming the issues of limited driving distance and battery charging infrastructure.

The dimensions of the e-XIV concept are: 4,160mm long, 1,790mm wide, 1,575mm high, and with a 2,600mm wheelbase. The glass roof provides enhanced visibility for passengers, while the roof mounted solar cell panels supply pollution free solar energy.
