How is an electric vehicle powered?

Allied Electric vehicles are powered by one of the most responsive and reliable electric power trains available. Tried and tested in working vehicles since 1999, the Ansaldo motor combines operating efficiency with superb reliability.

Power stored in the lithium-ion battery pack is delivered via an inverter to the electric motor, which in turn drives the original vehicle gear box and drive shaft. The result is smooth and reliable supply of power to the drive wheels, with a reassuring emphasis on low-end torque.

What is the range of an electric vehicle?

Allied Electric vehicles are ideal for daily working life in busy town and city centres. Vehicles have an average range of 100 miles and will graft away all day long in most urban environments, before settling down for a good night's charge. We say 'average' range because, just like any conventional vehicle, energy consumption will of course vary from day to day, according to factors such as road conditions, load and driving style.

What is the top speed of an Allied Electric vehicle?

Allied Electric vehicles have a top speed of up to 70mph. Many users, however, prefer to utilise the onboard software to pre-set a maximum speed of, say, 60mph, in order to further enhance range.

What is zWeb™?

zWeb™ is the unique remote electronic diagnostic & management system that is in-built in every electric vehicle in the Allied Electric range. zWeb™ monitors individual cell charge and temperature to maximise overall battery performance and delivers exactly the right energy to the electric power train. zWeb's™ technology even allows us to monitor the health of the battery, throughout its life, so we'll know in advance if anything needs attention. zWeb™ also provides in-built GPS tracking for your vehicles - ideal for fleet managers.
