ACCIONA, a pioneer in development and sustainability, has developed and built the first 100% electric vehicle to participate in the most demanding Rally in the world. It is the fruit of two years of research and a team of over 20 professionals.

The vehicle has achieved a historic milestone by becoming the first 100% electric vehicle to participate in the rally without consuming any fossil fuels. The goal set to prove that clean energy can compete in extreme conditions was reached because the energy systems worked perfectly.

The fact the vehicle withstood the same conditions as traditional vehicles confirmed the optimal integration of electric propulsion technology and the high competition mechanical characteristics a rally vehicle must meet and confirmed the expectations of the capabilities of the vehicle.

100% clean energy systems 

• A synchronous electric engine that has a highly efficient 300 CC engine and which weighs only 80 Kg compared to its internal combustion counterparts which weigh 280 Kg. 
• 4 removable Lithium Ion battery packs, capable of storing a total of 140kWH (similar to the contracted capacity of 32 homes) to adequately power the electric motor. 
• A system of high-efficiency solar panels, to power the telemetry and security systems of the ACCIONA 100% EcoPowered with 100% renewable energy.
