Skywell also guarantees the battery pack of the D07 for 5 years or 200,000 km / 125,000 miles. The Skywell D07’s drivetrain produces 70 kW (94 hp) of power, and 230 Nm of torque. It has a top speed of 100 km/h.

Electric vans with a 200 km range or more are now more accessible and will be a gamechanger in the logistics industry as well as the passenger shuttle service. It is really good that SolarTaxi prioritizes solar as its main source of electricity to offset CO2 emissions.
The SolarCargo is up for sales as well.
