Shanghai, April 30 (Gasgoo.com) Chinese automaker Brilliance Auto showed off a new concept electric car last week at the Shanghai auto show, sina.com said. It's all-electric and looks like a VW Up! concept model.

The Brilliance EV concept has two electric motors which are powered by lithium-ion batteries. It can run on one motor at speeds up to 25mph, with a range of around 80 miles. But when the other motor kicks in, the EV can crack 80mph.

As for charging times, the EV takes around eight hours from a household plug, or just 30 minutes from a special fast charger. The automaker claims that this battery can be hooked to a 220V charger, with a "Quick Charge" feature to replenish the pack to about 80% in just 30 minutes.

On the exterior front, this new EV concept may have been inspired by the VW Space Up! concept. Dual power-operated clamshell-ish doors allow access into an interior cabin rather well done in clean-looking white materials.

Brilliance Auto has set down a strategy regarding new energy vehicle development, which includes R&D of fuel application technology, hybrid vehicles and fuel cell electric vehicle.
