Tesla Participate in Smart EV Construction
Some years ago I met the Smart, a small city-car Daimler (Mercedes Benz) and I loved the idea of a car so small and functional is great, but over the years, these vehicles have been lagging behind in As for his friendliness to the environment.
But this could change, as Tesla Motors has signed an agreement to design and provide the technology to Daimler Smart 1000. That we finally have one of the steps that we will see electric Smarts.
Daimler has not yet decided the matter, but has recently announced a joint venture with Evonik, a German company that will provide you with lithium batteries, so it is almost certain that we will see these EV medium term. Now it remains to be seen what affect the weight of batteries to a small vehicle like this, how it affects their maneuverability and no loading times will last forever as the 10 hours of the Tesla Roadster.
