As a compact city runabout, the [ARI Bruni](/en/electric-cars/ari-bruni-2-seater) is ideal for everyday urban use. But what happens when you go off the beaten track? Can the ARI Bruni also hold its own on gravel paths, dirt tracks or even a meadow? We put it to the test!

 

## Ground clearance and off-road capability

 

With an impressive ground clearance of 21 cm, the [ARI Bruni](/en/electric-cars/ari-bruni-2-seater) can handle more than just smooth asphalt. Even unpaved paths, gravel or grit are no problem for it. This generous ground clearance ensures that obstacles such as small stones or bumps can be safely overcome.

 

## Climbing ability: even hills are no obstacle

 

Another highlight is the climbing ability of 22 %. This means that the [ARI Bruni](/en/electric-cars/ari-bruni-2-seater) does not falter even on steeper slopes - be it on a slightly slippery meadow or a dirt track. Even when going uphill, the electric speedster remains confident.

 

## Stop and start again safely

 

Thanks to the hill-hold function, the [ARI Bruni](/en/electric-cars/ari-bruni) stops safely even on inclines. When moving off, the electric motor automatically holds the position to prevent the scooter from rolling backwards - similar to an electric parking brake. A convenient and safe feature, especially on hilly terrain.

 

## Robust even on dirt tracks and unpaved roads

 

Of course, the [ARI Bruni](/en/electric-cars/ari-bruni) is not an off-road vehicle with all-wheel drive, but it surprises with its versatility. It masters gravel paths, forest tracks and easy off-road routes with ease. It also easily copes with smaller potholes - ideal for anyone who is not only out and about in the city, but also needs to drive to their own property or paddock.

 

## Conclusion: More than just a city car

 

The [ARI Bruni](/en/electric-cars/ari-bruni) impressively demonstrates that it is not just made for city driving. Its high ground clearance, good climbing ability and robust construction also make it perfect for off-road driving.

 

#### Test the ARI Bruni for yourself!

 

If you are looking for a practical, economical and versatile vehicle, the ARI Bruni is the perfect choice. Configure your individual [ARI Bruni](/en/electric-cars/ari-bruni) - for town and country!

Ground clearance of the L7e e-car: How off-road capable is the ARI Bruni electric car?

The florist “Blumen Pfeifer” in 33102 Paderborn decided to use the ARI 458 with tipped body, because it perfectly fitted the requirements of the daily operations of the company. The small electric transport vehicle is received well by the team of florists and gardeners surrounding the family Stefan Pfeifer and is also an attraction for their customers.

 

The smart electric transport vehicle with its tipper body and the small width of 1,30 m is mainly used for grave maintenance and horticulture, thereby using said advantages to master the narrow paths of these environments.

 

The loading bed of the tipper body has a length of 155 cm and a width of 1,30 m and can take up to 450 kilogram of cargo. Additionally, the vehicle is equipped with the optional trailer hitch for practical use on private grounds. If you want to configure the tipper body if the ARI electric transport vehicle, just use out configurator!

According to a study by DAT, used electric cars are attracting increasing interest from customers. As many as 14% of people interested in buying a used electric car were recently open to the idea.

 

This is significantly more than in previous years, when just 4% and 9% of potential buyers could imagine buying a used electric car. Although the electric drive is still the type of engine with the fewest supporters overall, this at least indicates a subtle change in direction.

 

However, the increased popularity of electric used cars came at the expense of plug-in hybrids. These lost significant popularity, while petrol (41%) and diesel models (16%) met with the same level of interest.

 

## Growing range & battery testing basis for increased interest

 

The main reason for the increased popularity of used e-cars is the growing supply of used BEVs, which naturally attracts more potential buyers.

 

However, technical advances and modern battery testing options are also playing their part in making used electric cars more presentable, as it was the previously less tangible battery condition that often made potential customers shy away from a purchase.

 

## Young used electric cars particularly popular

 

It is also striking that many customers are particularly interested in young used electric vehicles. A full 44% of the potential buyers surveyed by DAT were considering an electric car that was less than twelve months old. Just two years ago, only around 30% were interested in such a vehicle.

 

However, slightly older used electric cars (> 1 year old) are also becoming increasingly popular. Whereas just a short time ago, a maximum of 7% of potential buyers were interested in purchasing such a second-hand electric car, 12% would now give it a chance.

 

The preference for new cars, on the other hand, has dropped noticeably from 69% to 61%.

 

## BEV used car customers buy out of conviction

 

In general, it can be seen that people interested in BEVs mainly buy a used electric car because they are convinced that a vehicle with an electric drive is good for the environment (84%).

 

69% also believe that e-motors are the drive technology of the future and consider an e-car or e-mobile to be the ideal means of transportation for everyday use.

 

## Desired minimum ranges and falling prices

 

Most of the prospective BEV buyers surveyed (79%) would buy a used e-car as their first car and would like it to have a minimum range of 366 kilometers. This makes them more modest than the average petrol car buyer with a desired range of at least 448 kilometers.

 

Although many second-hand electric vehicles are not able to provide a range of 366 kilometers and therefore initially fall through the search grid, it can be assumed that used electric vehicles with an everyday range of 50 - 200 km will also find buyers.

 

According to experts, however, prices for electric cars are coming under increasing pressure and the residual values of electric vehicles are also very low.

 

According to residual value experts, this is partly due to the sharp price reductions for new Tesla models, which will presumably also affect the prices of used Tesla vehicles and electric vehicles from competitors.

 

## Conclusion:

 

To summarize, it can be said that used electric cars are attracting increasing interest - especially from customers for whom an environmentally friendly vehicle that is suitable for everyday use is important.

 

As more and more used electric cars come onto the market, supply is growing in parallel with demand. Technical advances and modern battery testing methods minimize the risk of buying a second-hand electric vehicle and ensure that more and more people can imagine buying a used electric vehicle as their first car.
