The Alias is a 100% electric-powered, three-wheeled vehicle designed by ZAP with help from engineers in Detroit and Europe. Powered by an array of lithium batteries, the Alias can top 75 miles per hour on the highway and travel over 100 miles on one charge. It is compatible with any standard 110-volt outlet. Under its "hood" is a compact high-efficiency, air-cooled, AC-induction motor. It carries a list price of $35,000. ZAP expects to announce production plans once it has completed testing and validation.
"The Progressive Insurance Automotive X Prize will be an excellent opportunity to put the Alias through its paces," said Steven Schneider, Chief Executive Officer of ZAP. "We specifically designed the Alias for customers who are in the market for a sports car and who care about energy efficiency. With the Alias and our other products, ZAP is positioned as a leading brand and distribution portal of advanced technology vehicles."
The Alias is one of five car models on display today at an event hosted by the Progressive Insurance Automotive X PRIZE. The event is being held at the Manhattan Classic Car Club at 250 Hudson Street in Manhattan. A free public viewing of the Alias is being held from 2:00pm to 7:00pm.
On Tuesday, October 20, the Alias will once again be on display, this time at an event hosted by ZAP, during which ZAP CEO Steven Schneider will answer queries about the Alias, its innovative and energy-efficient design, and what it offers to the consumer. This event will be held at Manhattan Motorcars at 270 Eleventh Avenue in Manhattan from 11:00am to 1:00pm.
