The 2024 BeEV

By Halvson

Halvson is proud to present the BeEV, Australia’s take on the small EV.

With large amounts of cabin space, more than adequate around town power and range, and features more commpnly seen on larger cars such as our HalvEye HUD and HalvSafe II safety systems, it more than punches above its weight.

The BeEV also stands out from the crowd, using our new Highlight design language to its fullest, allowing for almost infinite colour combinations between the main body colour and the accent colours*.

The Halvson BeEV, bringing a splash of fun to city streets.


Visit us online at www.halvson.com.au for more information, configuration options, and to order a car today.

Colour combinations are split between 12 main body colours and 9 accent colours. Most colour combinations are pre-set, but can be changed on order for an additional fee. Special editions may introduce unique colour combinations.

(I know that this is way past the deadline, but I just wanted to show it here anyway, as I did make this car for the challenge, but I couldn’t post it before deadline due to new user restrictions. This is also my first message on these forums, haha)

Anyways, say hello to the MAG Elektron.


This is a small, city-goer electric hatchback built in Austria. It’s good for getting around town, getting groceries, and getting the kids to school!

EXTERIOR:

This dinky little hatchback has a slightly rounded, yet aggressive design all around. The front is kept simple, yet stylish, with functional air curtains, hexagonal fog lights, and a light bar going across the front. The rear also has a light bar, as well as a nice little “diffuser” and spoiler to finish off the rear end.


INTERIOR:

Despite being a modern electric car, there is a wide array of physical controls and buttons, which is accompanied by 2 decently sized displays in the center. It also uses a normal old gauge cluster, with analogue gauges, keeping it simple and physical. The seats on this more decked-out model are made from vegan leather (which is really just a fancy way of saying vinyl) and recycled alcantara suede, keeping it comfortable. In fact, a lot of the plastics, metals, and other materials in this interior are recyclable, keeping it eco-friendly as well! It also has seating for 5 people, although 4 would be more comfortable for sitting in.




PRICING AND SPECIFICATIONS:

This car uses a RWD single motor setup, and can send itself to 60 mph in around 7.3 seconds. It has a little over 200 horsepower, although that is just for the in-game automation engine, it would probably be around half of that if I were to export it as an EV to BeamNG.drive.

Pricing starts at around $19,500, with this fully loaded model displayed being $24,800.

Hi all, bit of an update - reviews have stalled out due to a mixture of mental and physical health stuff. I’m still working on things, but it may take a little while, sorry about the delays. Figured I’d just put out an update so y’all know how it’s coming along.
