26、 A solar-powered car that can be charged as it runs is being tested in Germany.
Munich-based manufacturer(制造商)Sono Motors has built the new type, named Sion, and will likely help the European powerhouse hit its national target of 1 million electric cars on the road by 2020.
Sono Motors has solar cells fixed into Sion’s bodywork, with a total of 330 solar cells built into the roof, bonnet and sides of the vehicle. These enable the vehicle’s battery to be charged when sunlight is hitting the solar cells, whether it is on the road, or parked in the sunny spot in a car park.
The solar-powered vehicle is set to be launched in Germany in 2019.
Sono Motors wants Sion to be universal and allows the car to be charged using solar energy as well as conventional outlets(电源插座), so car owners aren’t left on cloudy days.
The firm has made a 2019 date for mass production, which will be undertaken(承担) by a European manufacturer. Some 6,500 people have already placed orders for the electric vehicle. Prices for Sion tend to start from € 16,000 next year. The all-electric vehicle will offer a range of around 250 km before the battery runs out completely and it needs recharging either by solar power or using a wall plug, the company said.
Sion was designed originally as an environmentally conscious car, but will also include a number of features designed around comfort to help it compete with other modern vehicles.
“We have a seat heater, air conditioning, and a large entertainment system where I can also connect my phone, which means I really have a full vehicle,” Laurin Hahn, co-founder of the company told Reuters.
【1】From the third paragraph we can know that .
A.the car is popular on the road B.the car has a very large battery
C.there are 330 solar cells on the car D.where there is sunlight, Sion can be charged
【2】What does the underlined word in Paragraph 4 “launch” mean?
A.design B.release C.improve D.recall
【3】Why does the car not break down when it is cloudy?
A.Because it is made from the rainproof material.
B.Because it can be charged by clouds on cloudy days.
C.Because it can store a great deal of energy.
D.Because it can be charged by conventional power outlets.
【4】What are the features of the car?
A.Modern, powerful and popular. B.Environmental, comfortable and competitive.
C.Environmental, cheap and simple. D.Expensive, fashionable and energy-saving.
