Electric-car recharging station

MINHANG has set up an electric-vehicle charging station in the Pujiang High-Tech Zone in the Caohejing area. Five chargers are available at the site.

The zone has been promoting electric vehicles as both environmentally friendly and cost saving.

Motorists pay only 1 jiao (1.6 US cents) for each kilometer driven in an electric car - a sixth of the equivalent gasoline cost for conventional engines.

An electric car usually requires eight hours to charge fully and can travel 150 km before recharging is needed.

Pre-paid cards are available for charging stations.

The district is planning to increase the number of charging stations at the Jiao Tong University Minhang campus and in the Zizhu High-Tech Zone. Future plans also call for more roadside stations.
