A young Ghanaian man known as Flash is receiving acclaim for his remarkable ingenuity in building an electric car from scratch, completing the ambitious project over a span of 3 years with a total cost of $12,000 (equivalent to N9.4 million).
In an exclusive interview with Daily View Gh on YouTube, Flash shared insights into the development of his electric vehicle.
Remarkably, the car operates without a traditional engine, relying instead on a power system composed of five car batteries.
Flash revealed that the electric vehicle boasts an impressive range of 100 kilometers on a single charge.
When questioned about seeking support from established automobile companies, Flash emphasized his decision to independently pursue the project, stating, “I have not reached out to Kantanka or anyone for help. I believe in working on my own; the only issue I know will be an impediment is funding,” during the interview.
The YouTube video interview showcasing Flash's electric vehicle has garnered significant attention, with viewers expressing admiration, encouragement, and curiosity about the young innovator’s future plans.
