Costa Mesa-based T3 Motion Inc. recently unveiled its newest electric vehicle, the CT3. The launch of the three-wheel model represents the company's vision for the future of personal commuter and professional fleet transportation.
The CT3 – based on T3 Motion's CT Micro Car – is a quiet, environmentally friendly vehicle. The model features all-wheel drive, full front and rear suspension, full front and rear independent hydraulic disc brakes, and a compact design. The commuter version of the car will be limited to speeds up to 45 mph.
“From bumper to bumper, from wheels to roof, we are very excited for the future of vehicles like the CT3,” says company CEO Ki Nam.
Another version of the CT3 – the CT3-S – is competing for the Progressive Automotive X Prize in the Alternative Vehicle Class. The CT3-S is among 136 vehicle entries seeking to be named a 100 miles per gallon commuter vehicle, as well as garnering the $10 million award.
"It is energizing for T3 Motion Inc. to be alongside so many different interpretations of creating the 100 mile per gallon car," says Nam. "With electricity being the most readily available source of fuel today, our zero-gas emission CT3-S exemplifies the 'real world' opportunities electric vehicles have both today and in the future."
