The Bertone Blitz is an electric concept car built in 1992 by the Italian design house Bertone and introduced at the 1992 Turin Auto Show. It is an open two seater with a steel tube frame chassis and fiberglass panels, and the passenger seat is mounted to the side of the driver seat but set further back. The interior is made of carbon fiber. Two DC motors give a combined 56 kilowatts, or 75 horsepower, and 95 newton metres of torque, reportedly enough to reach 100 kilometres per hour in 6 seconds. Lead acid batteries account for 260 kilograms of the car's 650 kilogram weight, the range is about 100 kilometres on one charge, and a recharge takes four to six hours.
