This is the prototype (licensed 2014) for a Brazilian electric minicar called JAD (the initials of the inventor).  I don't find any model designation, other than it is a two passenger with 5CV.  According to a number of web sites, arrangements are currently underway to acquire funding and facilities for production.

This is indeed a JAD electric car licensed in 2014, but if you keep on searching you can find the year it was built and its name.

LOCKED for you !

Thanks for the lock oko.  Extensive online research at a myriad of websites has produced only limited results.

Most websites infer that the prototype was completed in early 2011, but one site clearly states that it was completed in late 2010.  I'm not sure whether the prototype is registered as a 2010 or 2011 model, but I would lean toward a: 2011 model completed in late 2010.

Finding a model name has been much more difficult.  Most cites simply refer to the car as a: JAD.  However, I have compiled a list of other words that might be construed to be names of this prototype:
   
   New Electric (probably just translation adjectives, not a name)
   How Buggy (no idea where this one originated)
   Lejeado (the name of the town where the inventor lived)
   Dresch (the name of the inventor)
   R1 (in a website title with no explanation)
   Precede (the name of the company set up to potentially manufacture production cars)

Since most of this information is from Portuguese language websites, and I neither read, nor speak, absolutely any Portuguese, I am at the tender mercies of Google Translate.  Probably most, if not all the above are simply incorrect deductions resulting from language translation.  However, I have decided that because the newly established production company is called Precede Automotive, I will guess that this car is named: Precede.

If this, or all of the other listed potential names, is/are incorrect, you might as well release the lock, as I do not know where else to search.

As you mentioned the right answers in your fairly extensive post, here's a point for you !

The car was actually built between October and December 2010 according to a poster, and it's called JAD Elétrico both on the poster and on the spare wheel cover.

Thanks for the point oko.  I did see the pictures that you posted, but concentrated on the accompanying verbiage.  Due to my language limitations I assumed that Carro Eletrico was simply the description "electric car" rather than the car's proper name.  In the future I'll try to be more careful/observant.

Here is a rather poor picture of the second prototype, the JAD2.
