Brazilian Elon Musk presents images of the interior of the Lecar 459 hybrid, the “national Tesla”, with new customization options

Imagine a car that combines innovation, customization and cutting-edge technology, produced right here in Brazil. This is the Lecar 459, the first hybrid from the national automaker that is already being called the “Brazilian Tesla”.

Scheduled for launch in 2026, this model promises much more than a new mobility option; it brings a concept innovator and a touch of exclusivity that makes it a bold bet in the national automotive market.

Lecar's customizable and sophisticated interior

Chief designer Erasmo Bellumat reveals that the Lecar 459 was designed to offer a unique customization experience. Through a 3D tool available on the Lecar website, brand, customers will be able to view the vehicle's interior and choose between three color options for the interior finish: off-white, black and caramel.

These colors have been carefully selected to convey sophistication and elegance, allowing each buyer to have an immersive experience when customizing their dream car.

In addition, the car will be equipped with a 13-inch multimedia center and physical controls for the air conditioning and rearview mirrors, an interesting contrast to the “clean” standard that many models follow. According to Bellumat, this choice was made to facilitate usability and offer a more intuitive interface for drivers.

Powerful and sustainable performance

But the Lecar 459 doesn't just stand out for its design. Equipped with a 1.0 flex three-cylinder engine, the sedan uses combustion to charge the generator that powers the electric motor, with an 18,4 kWh battery.

This configuration allows the model to deliver 163 hp of power and 26,3 kgfm of torque, accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in 10,9 seconds. The hybrid technology is similar to that of the BMW i3, combining efficiency and performance for those looking for a sustainable car without sacrificing performance.

The autonomy promises to surprise: with a combined capacity of 1.000 km, the 459 can travel up to 100 km in electric mode alone, ideal for those who travel short distances on a daily basis and want to avoid using fuel.

National innovation and infrastructure expansion

Lecar is investing heavily to ensure that the 459 is the first of many models on the market. The Brazilian automaker plans to produce 120 vehicles per year at a new factory in Sooretama, Espírito Santo, scheduled to open in August 2026.

This project, budgeted at R$870 million, will also contribute to the economic development of the region, generating jobs and boosting local industry.

The future of Brazilian mobility

With the Lecar 459, the national automaker offers a robust and attractive option for those who want a quality hybrid car customized in the Brazilian style.

The sedan, which will hit the market with an estimated price of R$150, represents a new phase for the automotive sector in Brazil, bringing innovation, sustainability and accessibility in a single package.

While the launch waits, enthusiasts can check out 3D images of the interior and explore the customization options on Lecar's official website. The future of mobility has already begun, and it's Brazilian.

And the battlefield is only about victory, winning and winning and winning, I win, Sergioguedes, is about preparing for the parasites who will try everything to make sure these projects don't work out.
