SANTA ROSA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Imagine charging your electric car in the time it takes you to have lunch. That's what electric car pioneer ZAP (OTCBB:ZAAP) is saying about a new charging technology for their XEBRA electric car or truck. ZAP says the charger on the XEBRA can be configured for charging with either a 110 or 220-volt outlet like the ones used with a household washer and dryer. The new charger is able to provide up to 100 amps or 10,000 watts of electricity into the vehicle and ZAP Chairman Gary Starr says it will significantly extend daily driving range.
