At just $2,600, the Robeta Electric Fire Truck may just be the most affordable fire truck in the world. Not to mention that you can buy it from online shopping sites such as Alibaba, according to Audi Central.
Fully equipped fire trucks usually cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, but municipalities, businesses or even individuals looking to protect themselves from fires on the cheap have a convenient and environmentally friendly option.
The Robeta fire truck is a fully electric, single-seater vehicle with a range of 31-37 miles (50-60 kilometers) and a good firefighting arsenal.
While it certainly can’t be considered the most impressive fire truck ever made, for $2600, you have to keep your expectations in check.
This mini firefighter is just 2.4 meters tall, features full LED lighting, and a hydraulic brake that gives him a stopping distance of just 3 meters (10 feet). But in terms of fire-stopping power, Robeta isn’t impressive, according to the site.
According to the description on Alibaba’s shopping site, the truck comes with small fire extinguishers, a 60-meter fire hose, a small axe, and an assortment of equipment that will help you deal with small fires.
And while the Robeta doesn’t actually look like a real fire truck, that doesn’t make it useless. As a real fire truck is not only expensive in comparison, it is also bulky overall, which makes it difficult to use in confined spaces.
At just $2600, the Robeta Electric Fire Truck is cheap, so instead of just one fire truck, you can get dozens, if not hundreds of these little things.
In addition, it is compact and can be used by almost anyone, even without any firefighting training. And last but not least, it is an electric truck and perhaps this is one of its most important features.
The above arguments may not justify a Robeta fire truck, but the fact that this might be the smallest and cheapest electric fire truck in the world is pretty cool.
Interestingly enough, this is not the cheapest electric car you can buy. That moniker belongs to Changli, a $930 electric car that can be shipped right to your doorstep.
