I know you can with the North American version (2012 to 2017) through the use of a small remote that comes with these cars.

"Car cap. Ah 36.5" This is the 100% capacity of the battery reported by the car "SoC 68.0" This is the SoC reported by the car "Ah 24.82" This is the present Ah in the battery based on the first two numbers "battery Ah 24.93" This is present Ah in the battery...

I'm a fan of small cars, became hooked on my Saab's FWD, and was intrigued when I first saw the Kandi writeups; however, that top speed of 63mph and 70mph immediately disqualified it for us: most of our trips entail hopping onto a freeway... I think Mitsubishi hit the sweet spot with our i-MiEV's 8...

Kandi America is about to release a couple electric cars for sale in the US. The least expensive model is the K27 which is almost exactly like the I-miev except for motor size. (It's a 20KW motor compared to our 47KW). They call in an $10K car although it's really $17,999 before the federal incentiv...

Your place looks good Joe! I'm going to have to start doing the same considering how close these wildfires are getting every year. I'm been thinking.

I guess I was missing the point. If there's a leak, then it's like an ice car anyway.

Most ice cars today have compressors with mechanical shaft seals that leak refrigerant all the time and most mechanics can do a good job at guessing how much refrigerant to add with a little experience. But with our hermetic or semi-hermetic compressors which are completely sealed, weighing in the c...
