中国最便宜的电动汽车即将进入美国和欧洲市场，售价仅为9000美元 [美国媒体]

China already sells more electric vehicles than the rest of the world combined. And there’s a long list of the categories you can choose from—including large buses, sports cars, two-wheeled motorcycles, and zippy scooters.

中国的电动汽车销量已经超过世界其他地区的总和。而且种类繁多——其中包括大型电动公共汽车、电动跑车、电动摩托车和电动脚踏车。

One of the hottest categories in that list is “tiny cars.” These mini-vehicles can cost as little as $1,000 and, in China at least, you don’t even need a driver’s license to use them. The catch? Their top speed is less than 40 miles per hour, they run on cheap lead-acid batteries, and they have little to no crash protection.

其中最热门的当属“电动小汽车”。这些电动小汽车的价格可以低至1000美元，而且，在中国，你甚至不需要驾照就可以使用它们。”这些电动小汽车使用廉价的铅酸电池作为动力源，最高时速不到40英里，几乎没有防碰撞措施。



And if we compare within Pickman’s category, the gasoline version of the Ford F-150 pickup starts at $28,000 and its upcoming electric version is rumored to start at $70,000. The Pickman can’t do everything that a Ford F-150 can do—such as travel at a top speed of 160 km per hour (100 miles per hour) and carry a payload as much as 1,000 kg. But it still has potential for use on farms or construction sites, where the car can be used in the day and put to charge at night at a lower cost than a gas-guzzling truck.

让我们将“Pickman”电动皮卡车与同类型的车型比较一下，福特F-150皮卡的汽油版最低价为2.8万美元，而且传言福特即将推出的电动版F-150，其最低价为7万美元。福特F-150能做到一些“Pickman”电动皮卡车所做不到的事情——比如可以开到160公里每小时的(100英里每小时)速度，并携带多达1000公斤的有效载荷。
但“Pickman”电动皮卡车仍有适合它发挥潜力的地方，比如农场或建筑工地，在这些地方，电动汽车可以白天使用，晚上充电，其所花费的成本要比耗油量大的卡车要低的多。

A "pickup truck" with a lead acid battery, a top speed of 28mph and 450kg capacity. I'm struggling to think of who exactly in the US would buy this. Golf courses and parks are the best I can come up with

一辆装有铅酸电池的“皮卡”，最高时速28英里，载重量450公斤。我很难想象在美国有谁会买这种车。我能想到的估计也就是高尔夫球场和公园了

In the US spiffy golf carts are going for $10,000.

在美国，一辆漂亮的高尔夫球车售价为1万美元。

i have a Chinese electric scooter. Cost was $400. The battery is Li-ion (Same as was used in laptops) and extremely light (about 2 kilos I think) It's so light that when I carry the shopping upstairs I can hook one finger of one hand under the battery and carry that up as well.

我有一辆中国电动摩托车。成本是400美元。电池是锂离子电池(和笔记本电脑使用的电池一样)，非常轻(我想大约2公斤)，当我把购物的东西搬到楼上时，我可以用一只手的手指钩住电池下面，然后顺便把它也提上去

They're super quiet (this is actually a bit dangerous; pedestrians and others do not hear you) and even though I'm 130kg I get about 4 days travel to work out of one charge (Mind you I only live 5 mins from work, BUT there's a huge hump-back bridge in the way I must go over.)

这辆电动摩托车在行驶时非常安静（甚至安静地有些危险，因为行人很难听见），虽然我本人有130公斤重，但充满电后，这辆车足够我跑四天，(注意，虽然我住的地方离上班的地方只有5分钟的路程，但我每天必须经过一座巨大的拱桥)。

For $700 more I can get a used Prius with 40k miles on it that can drive highway speeds

只要再多花700美元，我就能买到一辆行驶4万英里的二手丰田普锐斯，它不但能开上高速公路，而且还有安全气囊
