Chinese electric 'supercar' costs 5,500 USD

The 26-year-old's Pagani Huayra supercar is mass-produced with power from 4 to 10 horsepower.

Considered the most beautiful electric car in China, the work of Liu Shengqi, a young man in Jilin province, is named "Supercar" and belongs to the low-speed electric car line, only used in the city, according to Carnewschina.

The supercar uses an electric motor and has a starting price of 5,500 USD.

The design of the Supercar is borrowed from the Italian supercar Pagani Huayra. But the 2-seater electric car has neither trunk nor roof. The rear of the car has 6 exhaust pipes, but they are all fake. Customers can choose the car in red, white or 2-tone red-white.

Liu Shengqi once dreamed of designing a sports car for young people, and the Supercar was what he could do. It took Shengqi 7 months to complete the first prototype. When the funding ran out, the designer used the 7,200 USD from his wedding to continue to realize his dream. He even went to Shandong to convince a company to produce the Supercar.

The Supercar is currently for sale in at least four stores on Taobao, a popular Chinese online shopping website. The standard version has 4 horsepower, a top speed of 40 km/h and a range of 80 km per charge. The more advanced version has 10 horsepower, a top speed of 60 km/h and a range of 100 km/h per charge. Prices start at $5,500.

The supercar has a fiberglass body and weighs around 200 kg. The interior design is the most basic with a plastic dashboard, a steering wheel (no airbags) and a small touch screen.
