“Not only will this standard equipment ensure better traction on slippery roads, but the all-wheel-drive will make the Fresco XL off-road capable as well,” said Espen Kvalvik, CEO and chairman of the board of Fresco.
The Fresco XL will come with an extra-large battery pack that allows for longer road trips. It will also come with aerodynamic rims, ensuring a high energy efficiency.
The Fresco XL can also be used as a battery backup power source. It could double as a generator for your home or used as a camper.
“In the case you need some additional energy, hook up your Fresco XL to your house or cabin,” said Adrian Kristofer Locklindh, COO and member of the board of Fresco. “Due to its rather large battery pack, it would essentially work as a backup unit, and as the Fresco XL is such an extra-large vehicle, you can quite easily use it for camping and road trips. All you need to do is pull down the seats to create a flat surface, put in your bedding and use it as a camper.”
We love the flexible design and use for this new EV. And since a lot of electric car adoption is just waiting on longer-range batteries, the Fresco XL is a fantastic new addition to the world’s EV lineup.
