The Peugeot EX1 Concept (2010) car benefits from characteristics that give it a high enough level of performance not only to leave behind the city centre, the preferred territory of electric vehicles, but also to challenge acceleration records. Its lightness, weight distribution and aerodynamics, the torque and power of its two electric motors and its high-output lithium-ion battery are just some of the characteristics that make this a car capable of lightning acceleration: the latter can exceed 1G of gravitational force. Indeed the Peugeot EX1 Concept car has already broken the following international records (approved by the International Automobile Federation) for an electric-powered terrestrial vehicle. This series of records was established, by Nicolas Vanier, the famous French explorer and film-maker ("The Last Trapper", "Wolf") who drove the Peugeot EX1 Concept car. Between now and the end of the year, China, the world's largest car market, will be the setting for the Peugeot EX1 Concept to pursues other world records.[endtext]
