Following the
announcement of the financial
incentive scheme for electric
and hybrid cars Smart have
released more images of the
smart ed (electric drive).
-
The smart ed
emits no carbon dioxide,
carbon monoxide, unburned
hydro-carbons, particulate
matter or any harmful
substance – in fact it emits
nothing at all
-
The smart ed
retains all the safety
equipment you would find on
a regular smart. So unlike
electric quadricycles you
will find ESP, ABS brakes
two Airbags and seat belt
pre tensioners on the ed.
-
The ed also
is exempt from London
Congestion Charging &
Vehicle Excise Duty
-
Drivers of
the smart ed can expect to
achieve the equivalent of
around 300 mpg
-
The smart ed
has no engine oil, oil
filter, spark plugs or
exhaust. In fact there are
only a handful of moving
parts in the driveline,
resulting in very low
service and maintenance
costs.
