SMART
electric drive
The fourth-generation electric smart is now
available in all three bodystyles – including,
for the first time, the smart forfour. With torque
of 160 Newton metres, the 60 kW electric
car boasts exceedingly responsive acceleration. When fully charged the battery has sufficient power to cover approximately 160 kilometres (100 miles) in accordance with the
NEDC. The maximum speed is electronically
limited to 130 km/h (80 mph) to maximise
the range. From 2017 a particularly powerful
22 kW fast charger will be available as an
option. This enables the smart electric drive to
be charged in as little as 45 minutes.
