  Zhong Tai (Chinese: 众泰; lit. 'peace and safety for the people') was an all-electric car manufactured by Chinese company New Power in the 2000s. New Power is a subsidiary of Zotye. It is based on a 2006 Daihatsu Terios and was stated to be able to achieve up to 250 miles (400 km) on a charge.
  
  The vehicle is powered by a lithium-ion battery pack that can be recharged in 2 hours and the car can reach a top speed of 121 kilometres per hour (75 mph).
  
  The company in 2009 had preliminary plans to market the car in the UK by 2011, with a price between £16,300 and £20,500. In the event, no source indicates such plans were ever realized.
