Wheego Electric Cars To Debut New Full-Speed LiFe At LA Auto Show

Wheego Electric Cars, a U.S. manufacturer of all-electric cars, will be hosting a news conference at the Los Angeles Auto Show on Nov. 18. The news conference will feature the unveiling of the Wheego LiFe, the nation's first affordable electric car.

"Our highway-ready, full-speed electric car, the Wheego LiFe, is in production now and will be delivered to dealers and drivers this month," said Wheego President Jeff Boyd. "Our many LiFe reservation holders will receive their cars first." Visitors to the LA Auto Show will be among the first to see the LiFe in person, and we think they will be delighted and intrigued with the LiFe's spacious interior, standard equipment and overall design."

Wheego CEO Mike McQuary and President Jeff Boyd will present the new Wheego LiFe at the news conference. Consumers are invited to check out the Wheego LiFe and meet the Wheego team during the show's November 19-28 public days. Wheego will be featured in the show's new EV exhibit area in Kentia Hall.

The full-speed Wheego LiFe travels approximately 100 miles on a single charge and retails for $32,995. It qualifies for a $7,500 Federal tax credit, as well as many state tax incentives, including $5,000 in California. The Wheego LiFe comes fully-equipped with driver and passenger airbags, anti-lock brakes, air conditioning, and power windows and locks. The 115V lithium battery pack can be charged from a standard 120V outlet, a 240V outlet or any of the J1772 standard charging stations being installed in public locations throughout the United States. It is available in red, white, blue, black, silver, and green. The Wheego LiFe is a two-seat subcompact car with fit, finish, and features designed for today's environmentally conscious commuters.
