The Roewe E50 EV has been launched on the Chinese car market, price is 234.900 yuan, or 37.600 USD.

The Roewe E50 EV will be launched on the Chinese auto market on November 2. The market for electric cars is however very small in China so Roewe only plans to sell 1000 cars over 2013. The electric motor has 63hp, maximum speed is 130km/h, range is 190km. Fast charging takes 30 minutes for 80%.
