kwgibbs · January 07, 2013, 03:39:34 PM

any relation to Tici?

Djetset · January 08, 2013, 04:30:22 AM

No TiCi relation, but not 100% certain of its country of origin, but 99% sure that it is not Italian.

Wendax · January 08, 2013, 04:42:08 AM

Perhaps German?

Djetset · January 08, 2013, 04:44:28 AM

As I say, I'm not 100% certain of the country of its origin, but do not believe it to be German.

Wendax · January 08, 2013, 04:53:10 AM

Could it be from Eastern Europe?

Djetset · January 08, 2013, 05:44:52 AM

As I've said, I'm not totally certain where it is from, but suspect that it is not East European.

Electric powered?

Djetset · January 08, 2013, 06:09:07 AM

I don't know much about this car, it might be part electric, but I don't believe it is fully electric.

Djetset · April 28, 2013, 03:54:38 PM

No word on this one for many months, so off to the Black Hole very soon!

Djetset · April 29, 2013, 07:49:29 AM

Into the BH.

kwgibbs · April 29, 2013, 07:43:56 PM

the only question I have ,is it a 3-wheeled kit car?

Djetset · April 30, 2013, 04:29:45 AM

Don't know very much about this one. I believe that it was a 3-wheeler, but not sure if it was sold in kit form or not.

It's Electra Crif, an urban vehicle electric powered built at Crif-Liege in 1977-78
This electric powered city car was built in the CRIF-Liege in 1977-1978 as part of the Walloon projects on alternative energy.
Propulsion is provided by a DC electric motor 5 HP 48V front-mounted.
The engine is assisted by a pedal located in front of the passenger of the vehicle in order to prolong the lifetime of the vehicle.
The transmission of movement to the front wheel is provided by a gimbal system and a sliding shaft of variable length.
The engine control is electronic and braking is regenerative. The vehicle now no longer exists.

Well done Oguerrerob, this is the Electra Crif, so two points for you for this long-term BH puzzle.

I am going to keep this puzzle open though as the Crif was also known by another name, which I the name I am still looking for. So...?

Oguerrerob · August 08, 2016, 01:20:12 PM

This other name can be found on line?

The other name could be found on-line when I originally posted this puzzle eight years ago, but I've just researched it again now and can't find any mention.
