Citroen C-zero Electric Car Selected by Scottish borders Council (SBC)

Scottish borders Council (SBC) has selected three models of the Citroen C-zero electric car pilot scheme for a pool that will be driven by the social work team SBC.
Scottish Government low carbon vehicle procurement scheme has provided grant support that has been paid for three Citroen C-Zero and setup a public access network charging points in the middle of the border region.
Citroen C-zero can travel up to 93 miles on one charge of taking care of 16kW / h lithium-ion batteries and ultra-efficient 49kW electric motor, which benefits from the addition of a partial system for regenerative braking. The battery can be recharged within 7 hours of domestic socket or recharge 80% in just 30 minutes.
Council Jim Fullarton, executive member for roads and infrastructure, commented: "with fuel prices today are very helpful for our social work department to be able to recharge the C-zero at minimal cost. While the C-zero will be initially limited to use in the city cities, with more charging points we will expand the territory they can operate. "
SBC includes a 1830-square-mile area 15 miles south of Edinburgh to the English border. Headquarters is based in Newtown St. Boswells, Melrose.
