Dubai, June 13: The Arab world’s first environment- friendly electric car is expected to roll out soon on the streets of Oman.
The car, which is likely to cost between USD 70,124.41 and USD 90,902, will run 3,600km non-stop on a single complete charge, Sultan bin Hamad Al Amri, CEO of Noor Majan which is manufacturing the vehicle, was quoted as saying by the local media.
The vehicle is expected to run without any maintenance for 21 years, he said.
According to him, the air conditioner in the car is solar energy-based and can run 24 hours a day.
The proposed plant in Oman is expected to come out with about 120 cars each year.
In the car, the doors open to the top and the vehicle will be fitted with massage chairs, Al Amri said.
The parts of the car, including the 800-horsepower engine, are manufactured in Japan, America, Germany and Hong Kong.
