A car of mass 1600 kg can just be lifted what is the least force that the electronicmagnet must use to lift the car ?

The car's mass is 1600 kg.

Its weight is (mass) x (gravity).  

On Earth, that's (1600 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)  =  15,680 Newtons.

At the moment, that's the only force acting on the car, directed downward and provided by gravity.

If you want to lift the car, then the net force has to be directed upward, and must either exactly cancel or exceed the force of gravity.

So the minimum force required to lift the car is 15,680 Newtons, directed vertically upward.
