Experience zero-emission electric version of the smart for two

Electric version of the regular version of Smart styling and no difference, but there are differences on color, in order to reflect the electric version of the green, the upper body of the plastic parts and wheels turned green. This color looks clean and very well and the natural environment.
From the side, smart, compact shape is like a cabin with four wheels on the formation of this car, so compact body in the city driving and parking can be arbitrary, there is no trouble driving large vehicles.

The second generation smartfortwo rear electric cars have a 30 kilowatts installed magnetic motor, can generate 120 Nm of instant torque. With the car starting torque, smartfortwo electric car to 6.5 seconds to complete 0-60 km / hour speed, acceleration performance fully comparable to gasoline models. Taking into account smartfortwo major electric vehicles in urban transport services, so its top speed is limited to 100 km.
Determine the dynamic characteristics of electric vehicles, this car only needs a fixed transmission ratio.
Therefore, smartfortwo electric car drivers who do not require any shift operation can be realized easily driving, this feature in the crowded city traffic called a big advantage. Reversing motor direction of rotation will change. "Very magical, very easy to drive. Just need to sit in, start, and then move forward," this is London's electric car drivers who smartfortwo personal experience.

Electronic system to monitor the process of charging, and control the power display. smartfortwo electric vehicle power electronics system through the DC / DC converters for automotive electrical systems to provide power from the battery. In addition, the electronic system also controls the heating and air conditioning systems, such as batteries to bear the burden to a minimum. Charging at home, the driver can pre-open smartfortwo electric car air-conditioning system: a long-standing parking refrigeration dream become a reality!

The second-generation electric vehicles by the capacity smartfortwo 16.5 kWh lithium-ion battery to provide power.
It can use an ordinary household outlet or the public as a lithium-ion battery charging station for charging. To provide the required daily power, just charge the car for three hours to charge the battery to run out to regain enough power. At an average speed of 25-30 km / hour (normal speed in city traffic) in the case, smartfortwo before electric cars can recharge in about 4-5 hours of continuous driving. Charge for one night can be fully charged battery.

Special electronic systems to ensure that the battery is always in good condition. The battery management system for voltage, capacity, and continuous monitoring of temperature, if one of the parameters of the intended limit, the system will automatically play. For example, smart electric car in the uphill process, through the downshift function to maintain peak power output, the electronic system will automatically reduce the power output, almost imperceptible to the driver the way to eliminate the risk of excessive battery load.

Generation smartfortwo electric vehicles and equipment, is smartfortwo coup / cabrio model is based. In addition to air conditioning systems in addition, their equipment, including smartradio 9, electric power steering, power windows, electrically adjustable door mirrors, electric heating, two-spoke steering wheel, leather bag, bag leather gear knob and 12-spoke alloy wheels. As a smart electric car, which also has a battery indicator and can display power consumption and energy recovery of current meter. In addition, the new second-generation electric vehicle with a green coating smartfortwo alloy wheels, rear view mirror cover green, green contrast to the body parts and green tridion security institutions (the use of green foil). Tail and the rear-view mirror "electricdrive" logo also highlights the second-generation smartfortwo electric cars special status.
In many countries, electric vehicles have a special appeal to consumers, its popular for different reasons. Including tax breaks and government subsidies are very important factors, such as Monaco for electric car owners up to $ 9,000 tax cut. Some countries for the development of new energy transportation set up special funded projects, such as France for the carbon dioxide emissions below 60 g / km cars 5,000 euros "super environmental incentives" in the United Kingdom and Belgium, a similar award of up to 5,000 pounds, respectively, and 4,540 euros. In Denmark, a very high electric vehicles can be exempt from the registration tax, such a policy is not uncommon in many parts of Europe. In the U.S., state and federal tax benefits with the city set the additional subsidies, this part of the concessions of up to $ 7,500. In Asia, China and Japan were also announced up to 6,500 euros and 11,000 euros in subsidies.



Taking into account maintenance costs, electric car is significantly lower than the internal combustion engine driven car, because electric vehicles batteries, motors and other components are maintenance-free, and will not have maintenance costs.

From the end of 2009 since, smart clients have been specially selected to deliver a second generation smartfortwo electric cars, these cars to customers in the form of leasing the trial, a four-year lease period or 60,000 kilometers. Accordance with the "Berlin electric car project," the contents of the framework, the first smartfortwo electric car in December 2009 delivered to the customer. In this project, with the energy supplier RWE's cooperation, and the German government and the support of Berlin, Daimler to achieve zero-emission electric cars hit the create ideal conditions for driving. This includes the establishment of network of charging stations, so that electric cars and intelligence exchange between the supply network so that the battery can be charged at the lowest price. In addition, smartfortwo electric vehicles, also with 16-amp fuse (standard in Germany and other countries) of any home security outlet to recharge.



In the first half of 2010, the third generation smartfortwo electric vehicles will be in Hamburg, Paris, Rome, Milan, Pisa, London and central England, Madrid, Zurich, Portugal, Denmark, Czech Republic, Austria, Belgium and the Netherlands on the road. smartfortwo electric car will launch in autumn 2010 some cities in the United States and Canada, and from 2011 in some Asian countries listed. smartfortwo electric vehicle market demand, from 2012, smartfortwo mass production of electric cars will, and through smart dealer network to sell. Currently used second-generation lithium-ion batteries from Tesla, represents the highest level of battery technology, battery technology, however, is expected to be further developed. Third-generation electric vehicles will be equipped smartfortwo new lithium-ion battery, the new battery by Daimler and Evonik co-develop, has reached a mature stage of production. The main difference between the two cells is the structural design, Tesla battery unit by a number of cylindrical form, while Daimler developed in cooperation with Evonic battery will be fewer but larger flat-panel unit structure. This is the first to achieve greater energy density (higher volume of energy to achieve a longer life mileage), and longer life.


By smartfortwo electric car, smart brand highlights the development of zero emission urban transport leader. Mercedes - Mercedes Car Group sales and marketing executive vice president of Schmidt (JoachimSchmidt), Ph.D., said: "In short, we believe that electric transportation with good prospects. Competitors are still showing the introduction of electric cars, and smart in the last year. on the launch of a completely suitable for everyday use of production models, which once again confirms our expertise and mission.
