Almaz-Antey, one of Russia’s largest arms manufacturers, has announced its intention to enter the electric vehicle market. As a result, the Russian company filed a patent with the Federal Intellectual Property Service (RosPatent) for a compact zero-emission SUV, the first such vehicle in its history.
Named E-Neva, the vehicle has a compact size of 4.5 meters. Built on the Neva modular platform, presented last year at a military forum, the car has all-wheel drive.
State-of-the-art digital instrumentation and multimedia system
The architecture allows the installation of a fully electric propulsion system, but also one hibrid plug-in. The 100% electric version has two electric units, one on each axis. The combined power will be 435 hp and the torque 824 Nm.
Under these conditions, the E-Neva is capable of sprinting from 0 to 60 km / h in 2.7 seconds. The maximum speed announced is 197 km / h. In pure electric mode, the Russian compact SUV can travel 463 km on a single charge thanks to the 90 kWh battery.
A state-of-the-art multimedia system is installed inside. The instrument panel is completely digital, and the central touch screen of the multimedia system is 15 inches. The information provided by the car computer is displayed on a head-up display.
The space in the passenger compartment is enough for four adults and the trunk volume is 610 liters. The driver has a multifunctional steering wheel, numerous assistance systems. Android and AppleCar connectivity are also available.
The Neva platform will be used in the future as well other zero emission cars. In fact, the Russians filed patents on RosPatent for seven other electric vehicles, including a pickup truck.
The chassis of the E-Neva electric crossover was manufactured by the Obukhovsky plant in Almaz-Antey. The bodywork and design are the work of the St. Petersburg Polytechnic. It is unknown at this time what he will do after leaving the post.
