ELECTRIC CARS

Evolution Space, the car that promises to last 50 years

The Space, Evolution's signature electric car, represents a 'unicum' in its sector. It is in fact a circular economy car, i.e., one that can be used for as long as possible without creating waste and at the same time allowing its owner to save some money.

Space is obviously a car that winks at the environment, which is why it is equipped with a battery with a range of 750 km that reaches 600 km in just five minutes.

The electric powertrain is a 40 kWh lithium-ion battery made up of standard modules.

The new frontier of the circular economy
The Meta company is jointly developing with Space the first circular economy vehicles that can be upgraded and improved every five years. Thanks to remanufacturing in the reassembly factory, these vehicles have a lifespan four times longer than conventional cars. According to Günther Schuh, head of the Space Evolution project, the Space should last up to 50 years. The first models will go on sale in 2025, a small series of around 1,000 cars.

Autonomy of 750 km
Space is obviously a car that winks at the environment, which is why it is equipped with a battery with a range of 750 km that reaches 600 km in just five minutes. The electric powertrain is a 40 kWh lithium-ion battery made up of standard modules. There is also an LPG gas system that charges the same battery for long distances, so that the Evolution car will be used 85/90% electrically and the remainder of the journey with LPG. In fact, the battery alone provides 150 km of autonomy with the addition of LPG as a range extender, thus adding 600 km.

The cockpit
The interior features a continuous glass display across the width of the dashboard that is used for driving info and passenger entertainment. The whole thing is designed so that any future modifications and updates can be easily installed.

Strategic battery
Thanks to the relatively small 40 kWh lithium-ion battery and standard modules, the batteries will be reused for stationary solar operation for at least 20 years, thus reducing the carbon footprint of the battery pack. With a battery range of 150 km and an LPG-powered piston engine as range extender, the Space is suitable for almost 90 per cent of daily driving distances.

A hybrid vehicle
The Space is a cross between off-road vehicle and van, designed to combine all the features of modern universal vehicles. Thanks to the certainty of electric mobility technologies, the variable and high-quality interior, the Space is the perfect companion for a wide range of uses, from company shuttle to fleet vehicle to family holiday car. Powered by four-wheel drive from two electric axles, the Space can be moved very dynamically despite its gross vehicle weight of 2.8 tonnes.
