solar ejeepney


“The e-Jeepneys are powered by five-horsepower electric motor engines with 12 batteries that, at full capacity, allow the vehicles to run 120 to 140 kilometers at around 40 kilometers per hour.

“The batteries are charged for eight hours on ordinary 220-volt power sockets at a minimum cost of P120. In contrast, regular fume-spewing jeepneys guzzle P300 (US$6.50) or more of diesel each day.”

The information on this vehicle is a bit sketchy. The vehicle would be a lot better with a hybrid recharger. Pure battery power is a bit problematic for a taxi. But I love the paint scheme. Do they do a lot of LSD in the Philippines or what?


The world is filled with positive energy and technology. Enjoy the blog...
