Its very limited range and expensive batteries resulted in it being a commercial failure. At a steady speed of 50 km/h (31 mph), a 100 km (62 mi) range was promised. Gurgel had already built the Itaipu E150 city car, which was followed by the Itaipu E400 electric van. Around 200 were produced overall, nearly entirely for Brazilian government agencies.
