Press Release
So, you’ve finally decided that it’s time to be more responsible with all the choices you make going forward. You’ve had enough of waiting in line to get to work using public transport. You’re tired of booking a ride just to get to or from a meeting. You’d like your mobility to be on your own terms and not rely on others to take you from one part of the city to another. You have finally decided to get your own set of wheels.
However, part of you wants to be financially, socially and ecologically responsible. You are conscious with your spending so you do not want a used or second-hand car where you will have to fork out money for repairs that the previous owner neglected. You’d rather have a brand-new car that you will care for and maintain diligently. You’d like a vehicle that is practical, economical and eco-friendly, yet stylish and fun. You ask yourself: “Is there such a car?”
Ideal first EV for young idealists
The answer to your question is a firm “Yes”! Consider the 2025 Bestune Pony. It is a fully electric 3-door subcompact car that’s designed for getting around the city. At three meters long and 1 ½ meters wide, its svelte size makes it suitable for tight city traffic, crowded streets and tight parking spaces. With a height of 1.6 meters, it has ample room to seat 4 occupants comfortably while the rear seatback folds down to increase cargo space when you need to haul some bulky items.
Its hatchback design makes it easy to load and unload stuff while its automatic transmission makes it easy to drive around the metropolis. With its 20kW electric motor, the Pony can easily keep up with traffic and accelerate smartly with 85 Nm of torque on tap. Furthermore, FAW Bestune Automobile Co., Ltd. engineers fitted the Pony with an independent suspension system within its two-meter wheelbase so it can cruise at 100 km/h with comfort, confidence and safety.
Having fun and saving while driving
The best thing about this cute electric Pony is that it cost very little to recharge the 13.9 kWh battery pack. Electricity bills averages around ₱13.50 per kWh in most areas, thus a full charge will only cost around ₱187.65 (13.9 kWh x ₱13.50 per kWh). You can drive it up to 170 kilometers on a single full charge and it will only cost around ₱1.10 per kilometer. And if you travel less than 30 kilometers each day, you’ll need to recharge its battery pack just once every 5 days, or just 6 times a month.
Thus, your recharging expenses will be less than ₱1,200 per month, which is less than the cost of one full tank of fuel that will last a conventional gas- or diesel-powered car less than a week, especially with today’s prevalent heavy traffic. You can smile while you drive past gas stations without caring about the unsteady fuel prices while you enjoy the music from your mobile device that is connected via Bluetooth or USB to the classic-looking radio on the cute and colored dash that’s matched to the Pony’s body.
