    The Dragonfy

    The Swiss Group Catecar is launching a revolutionary green vehicle : the Dragonfly. The

    first green vehicle which has none of the handicaps of electric cars : no need to plug it

    to the grid anymore because energy is not embarked but created by the vehicle itself

    thanks to the solar roof and its Range Extender; large autonomy; light batteries and last

    but not least it is a low cost vehicle to buy.

    Catecars partners are top Swiss universities and companies. The Dragonfly will be

    produced from June 2014.

    A True Green Vehicle

    Further state of the art technologies will be integrated in an ongoing process, giving

    Dragonfly an unique position in green mobility.

    Business model : The Dragonfly is manufactured locally and sold locally by small

    production units. Catecar intends to set-up a network of production sites with local

    investors.
