The car he drove was heavily camouflaged as the test preceded the unveiling which happened yesterday where it was revealed that the car would have a peak range of 300 miles with it delivering more than 500 bhp in power and its front truck has 400 litres of space.
The car will be delivered to customers next year at a price of almost $40,000 exclusive of subsidies for the base variant.
Biden has been a proponent of electric vehicles. He rolled back a lot of the draconian policies of Donald Trump including a return to the Paris accords.
