History

edit

The vehicle was originally designed by Artega Automobile in 2019 and was called the Karo.[2]

In 2022 Artega was acquired by German company Electric Brands,[3] who had introduced their Xbus electric truck in 2021.[4]

In February 2024 Electric Brands went into insolvency protection, and the future of the company and its models became unclear.[5]

Overview

edit

The non-commercial versions have a maximum battery capacity of 16.2 kWh, with an autonomy of 234 km (145 mi).[1]

Electric Brands aimed to start delivering the Evetta by the summer of 2023, priced at €19,540 including German taxes.[1]
