The electric Ambassador pulls a truck which weighs 14.5 tons.

An electric Hindustan Ambassador converted by He-Man Auto Robopark has shown its capabilities by pulling a loaded truck in a new video. The video was uploaded on the Kerala-based company's YouTube channel.

The total weight of the loaded truck is 14.5 tons. The electric Ambassador produces 275 Nm @ 1,500 rpm. It has a 0-100 km/h time of 12 seconds and a top speed of 120 km/h. Reports suggest that it has a 20 kW battery back and the motor produces 53 BHP. It is said to have a range of 100 km on a single charge and takes 8 hours to charge the battery.

According to a comment in the YouTube video, He-Man Auto could be developing an electric version of the Contessa.

In the UK, Lunaz is converting classic Rolls Royce cars to electric vehicles.
