SMART will bring to market an electric vehicle – "EV" – in the not so distant future. According to AutoExpress, the latest of three is set to eclipse the prius as greenest halo car.
"Packing a 41bhp electric motor, acceleration is quite strong, but motorways are a struggle with a 69mph top speed, and the range of 70 miles means it is really only suitable around town. Still, a full charge takes eight hours and costs only £1.35 [($2.75)]."
The SMART ForTwo will also feature an economical 799cc turbodiesel that will also emit less carbon emissions than the Prius.
