Piëch Mark Zero is a project of innovation and sports car design.

Piëch Mark Zero is the first member of a new product family. Thanks to the new battery cells used in this new electric car, the GT model has a 500 km (311 miles) range on a single charge and 80% of the batteries are only charged for 4:40 minutes. This is as much as the time a standard car spent in a gas station to fill a gas tank. This technology is a development that may erase the question marks on the heads of users who are concerned about charging times.

Piëch Automotive has partnered with DESTEN Group Ltd, a manufacturer of high-tech batteries with extremely short charging times.
