Range anxiety and the search for charging stations and authorised workshops are still a daily struggle for many e-car drivers. Frank M. Rinderknecht, founder of Rinspeed, and his team are going one step further: with the ID.Buzz, they are travelling from Geneva to Doha, 12,500 km through 22 countries, many without the necessary infrastructure. A contemporary homage to the great travelling adventures by car:. Frank M. Rinderknecht and his team set off from Geneva in the direction of Oman. Not with ordinary combustion cars, but with two e-mobiles. A truly pioneering journey, as the charging infrastructure in the Middle East is not very well developed. The five-person crew travelled 22 countries on their way via Doha to Salalah, covering 12,500 kilometres, 6,000 of which were without a charging station. How this was possible, what Rinderknecht and his team experienced and the tricks they used to keep the electric cars running are described in this exciting travelogue, which the Swiss author wrote together with his partner. Frank M. Rinderknecht is a car designer and founder of Rinspeed AG, a company that promotes new mobility concepts and drive systems. Bernd Ostmann is the former editor-in-chief of auto motor und sport and one of Germany’s leading automotive journalists. 978-3-613-04740-2, 176 pages, 240 pictures, €39.90
