Their company is based on Guernsey, an island in the English Channel. The Guernsey Smart EV is capable of 60 mph and has a range of up to 65 miles. It has regenerative braking and is a perfect companion for city traffic or as commuter vehicle. For more info contact: Mark Parr at The Electric Vehicle Company in Guernsey, Channel Islands, Great Britain call +44 (0)1481 264434 or FAX +44 (0)1481 268153 According to the BBC, the price is £15,000 ($29,840) ecocarforum.com - Green Car Network Community for sustainable transport

Maybe its under construction? I will ask the community over at batteryvehiclesociety.org.uk. Maybe they know more. Stay tuned.

The Electric Smart is expected for 2010. Source Sustainable Business On top of that Mercedes Manager Dieter Zetsche also announced a Mercedes running on electricity only by 2010. Source: Reuters If all those announcements are true then I have to upgrade the server software in order to cope with such a big EV Forum! ecocarforum.com - Green Car Network Community for sustainable transport
