MANX MEYERS EV, ACURA PRECISION EV TEASED AND F-150 LIGHTNING PRICE HIKES

EV Channels Review

The Meyers Manx EV marks a nostalgic return for the iconic dune buggy, reimagined with an all-electric powertrain. The vehicle will offer two battery pack options (20 kWh and 40 kWh), dual rear motors for RWD, and a claimed 0-60 mph time of 4 seconds. While the 40 kWh version boasts an optimistic 340-mile range, its lightweight construction (around 1500-1650 lbs) might support this. DC fast charging peaks at 60 kW. The biggest question remains street legality and its intended use, with the creators targeting early adopters and potentially a niche market of affluent owners. The vehicle is set to be officially unveiled at the Quail Motorsports Gathering on August 19th, with a potential delivery target of 50 cars in 2023, though a 2024 release is also mentioned. Pricing is unannounced but expected to be high, potentially around $100,000.
