The $2,000 electric mini-truck from China is still working after five years

چین سے دو ہزار ڈالر کا چھوٹا الیکٹرک ٹرک پانچ سال بعد بھی چل رہا ہے

चीन से दो हजार डॉलर का छोटा इलेक्ट्रिक ट्रक पांच साल बाद भी चल रहा है

The $2,000 electric mini-truck from China is still working after five years

Key points

اہم نکات

मुख्य बातें

  • Five years after buying a $2,000 electric mini-truck from China, its owner says the little workhorse is still doing heavy work on his parents' 10-acre homestead in Florida.
  • It has hauled mulch, sand, lumber, logs and yard waste, and its electric windows, door locks, headlights, backup camera and air conditioning still work — the air conditioning was measured at about 55 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • There are flaws: the wiper no longer sweeps fully, the rearview mirror keeps coming loose, and there is some rust where paint has worn off.
  • چین سے دو ہزار ڈالر کا چھوٹا الیکٹرک ٹرک خریدنے کے پانچ سال بعد اس کے مالک کا کہنا ہے کہ یہ چھوٹا کام کا ٹرک فلوریڈا میں والدین کی دس ایکڑ زمین پر اب بھی بھاری کام کر رہا ہے۔ اس نے ملچ، ریت، لکڑی، تنے اور باغ کا کچرا اٹھایا ہے، اور اس کی بجلی کی کھڑکیاں، دروازوں کے تالے، ہیڈ لائٹس، بیک اپ کیمرا اور ایئر کنڈیشننگ اب بھی کام کرتے ہیں — ایئر کنڈیشننگ تقریباً 55 ڈگری فارن ہائیٹ ناپی گئی۔ کچھ خرابیاں بھی ہیں: وائپر اب مکمل صفائی نہیں کرتا، پیچھے دیکھنے والا آئینہ بار بار ڈھیلا ہو جاتا ہے، اور جہاں رنگ اتر گیا ہے وہاں کچھ زنگ بھی ہے۔ ٹرک کی قیمت دو ہزار اسی ڈالر تھی اور ساتھ تقریباً دو ہزار ڈالر شپنگ اور درآمدی فیس لگی، اس کی چھوٹی بیٹری ایک ڈالر سے کچھ زیادہ میں چارج ہوتی ہے، رفتار تقریباً 25 میل فی گھنٹہ ہے، اور یہ سڑک پر چلانے کے لیے قانونی نہیں — صرف نجی زمین پر استعمال ہوتا ہے۔
  • चीन से दो हजार डॉलर का छोटा इलेक्ट्रिक ट्रक खरीदने के पांच साल बाद इसके मालिक का कहना है कि यह छोटा काम का ट्रक फ्लोरिडा में माता-पिता की दस एकड़ जमीन पर अब भी भारी काम कर रहा है। इसने गीली घास, रेत, लकड़ी, लट्ठे और बगीचे का कचरा ढोया है, और इसकी बिजली की खिड़कियां, दरवाजों के ताले, हेडलाइट्स, बैकअप कैमरा और एयर कंडीशनिंग अब भी काम करते हैं — एयर कंडीशनिंग लगभग 55 डिग्री फ़ारेनहाइट मापी गई। कुछ खामियां भी हैं: वाइपर अब पूरी सफाई नहीं करता, पीछे देखने वाला शीशा बार-बार ढीला हो जाता है, और जहां रंग उतर गया है वहां कुछ जंग भी है। ट्रक की कीमत दो हजार अस्सी डॉलर थी और साथ लगभग दो हजार डॉलर शिपिंग और आयात शुल्क लगे, इसकी छोटी बैटरी एक डॉलर से कुछ अधिक में चार्ज होती है, गति लगभग 25 मील प्रति घंटा है, और यह सड़क पर चलाने के लिए कानूनी नहीं है — सिर्फ निजी जमीन पर इस्तेमाल होता है।

Five years after buying a $2,000 electric mini-truck from China, its owner says the little workhorse is still doing heavy work on his parents' 10-acre homestead in Florida. It has hauled mulch, sand, lumber, logs and yard waste, and its electric windows, door locks, headlights, backup camera and air conditioning still work — the air conditioning was measured at about 55 degrees Fahrenheit. There are flaws: the wiper no longer sweeps fully, the rearview mirror keeps coming loose, and there is some rust where paint has worn off. The truck cost $2,080 plus nearly $2,000 in shipping and import fees, charges for just over a dollar on its small battery, tops out at about 25 miles per hour, and is not street-legal — it is used on private property only.
