A Lebanese man of Palestinian descent who lives in Montreal claims that he will manufacture an all-electric supercar using Palestinian labor, to be available in the next few years.
Jihad Mohammed started the Electra car company, it seems, around 2018. He introduced some computer simulated models of his planned car, the Quds EE.
According to the website, the Quds EE can accelerate from 0-99 kmh in 2.8 seconds and can go over 800 km between charges - significantly more than any electric vehicle on the market today.
Mohammed tells Arab media that the Quds name is an inherent part of the car, and he will refuse to honor the warranty of anyone who removes that name from the car.
The front of the car has a representation of the Dome of the Rock, which the company claims also helps charge the battery somehow - solar or wind, it wasn't clear.
Besides Jihad, the Electra company appears to have two employees - a designer, who had no previous experience designing cars, and a virtualization engineer who is creating these pictures of the car.
Mohammed himself has an "investment company" with an empty website.
Today, you can pre-order one of these entirely fictional cars. Just choose the colors of the exterior and interior, and based on the flimsy information given at the website, you can send a down payment of anywhere from $1,000 to the $70,000 estimated price of the car, to be sent via wire transfer or PayPal, and kiss your money goodbye.
