So apparently on June seventeenth “Lira” a Lebanese-made solar-powered automotive will likely be launched.
All proper, I shall skip the (awful) naming contemplating the Lira is now kind of ineffective by way of worth and that the repertoire may have very simply included different sexier names, and apparently it’s attention-grabbing that the automotive is sun-powered which is fantastic what’s with the diesel costs going berserk as of late.
A pal instructed that the Lira owes a few of its design to the much-maligned Fiat Multipla (right here) or the Kia Soul (right here) in keeping with me.
However this is the shock, this isn’t the first-Lebanese automotive to be “designed” and produced in Lebanon. Women and gents, let me re-introduce to you to:
Ranger4.
The advert beneath dates again from 1980:
All proper, the Ranger4 does appear to be a Jeep and a mini had a love little one.
The advert says that the Ranger4:
Has an interesting form and has versatile makes use of
Appropriate with all climates
Inflammable physique
Protected driving
Spends 20 liters of gasoline for ever 210 kms
14 horsepower and 1100 cc engine
Obtainable spare components
I’m not positive how a lot Lira compares to all that…. However hey, this is to a different Lebanese automotive.
And fact be advised, I do not know what occurred to the Ranger4 enterprise….
