Let’s see, electric car, late ‘70s , made by fly-by-night startup company working out of a shed.

I’m going to guess a top speed of 45mph and a range of 40 miles under laboratory conditions/20 miles in the real world, after it had some mileage on it?

Just looked it up: even worse, top speed 37mph, max range of 31 miles.
