History
In August 2018,[1] Kandi began selling a new, small model of electric car in the form of a 5-door hatchback. The K27's overall design is copied from the Daihatsu Cast kei car.[2]
Sale
The Kandi K27 is the first vehicle in the company's history to be sold in the United States along with the larger K23 outside the Chinese market. As a result federal tax breaks, at $12,299 for the cheapest copy, the K27 is the cheapest new electric car to buy in the country.[3]
Technical data
The K27 drive system is made of a 17.69 kWh battery, which ensures a maximum range on a single charge of up to 160 kilometers.[4]
