The Coradir Tito is Argentina's only domestically-built electric vehicle, manufactured in San Luis province. Priced from USD 16,732 (with AC), it's the most affordable EV in the country.
Key specs:
- 4.5 kW motor (~7 hp), max speed 65 km/h
- 8 kWh lithium battery, 100-300 km range (version-dependent)
- Standard 220V outlet charging, 8 hours to full
- 2.83 m long, 4 seats (rear foldable)
- 5-year / 100,000 km vehicle warranty, 8-year battery warranty
- Homologated as quadricycle (L7e), not as passenger car (M1) — important legal distinction affecting highway access and safety standards
The Tito makes sense as a second urban vehicle for short trips in CABA/GBA — it can avoid plate-based driving restrictions, costs very little to operate (~USD 15-18/month), and is the only EV in its price segment. It does not work as a sole family vehicle because it cannot safely travel highways (max speed 65 km/h) and has limited safety equipment.
