Companies car2go and Smart presented a new interpretation of the smart fortwo, which received the name smart fortwo car2go edition. Issue has received new tools and options, including a new touch-screen display, a roof with solar panels, etc.

All new systems are integrated into one system and integrated with the car electronics, in turn, solar energy not only provides the performance of some systems and is also used to recharge the battery.

So far, developed the company based in Magny-Cours Exagon electric race car. Now we'll do a road car with emissions-free drive. The latter provides a torque of 480 Newton meters between zero and 5,000 rpm. The sprint from zero to 100 km / h, the car created in 3.6 seconds, the 200 mark is reached after 14.6 seconds. A top speed of 287 km / h are given - on the race track, normally will be controlled at 250 mph.

The 4.50 meters long 2 +2 seater coupe has short overhangs, the design is cool and straightforward. A special feature is the double-bubble roof. To drive two provide very compact electric motors from Siemens. The liquid-cooled units provide 125 kilowatts each. Together, this results in an output of 340 hp, which is 5000-10000 rpm. Whether the motors driving one axis, so that a four-wheel drive results, is indicated. The electric machines are combined with a three-speed transmission that can be operated via shift paddles on the steering wheel. As an energy store lithium-ion batteries used by the manufacturer juice, which hold a capacity of 50 kilowatt hours at a voltage of 700 volts. In three and a half hours, they can be recharged to 20 percent charged to 80 percent. The batteries survive ten years or 3,000 charge cycles, so Exagon.

America is quite high, its ground clearance is 19 inches below the axles, at the center of the 4.12 meter long car are even 28.5 centimeters of air. Venturi certifies its current extraordinary diversity - the buggy should both be on the road as well in the area do that with its 180 km / h on a paved runway looks good.

For driving in America, a new electric engine with an output of 220 kilowatts (300 hp). Venturi speaks of the most advanced ever developed for cars electric machine. The unit also comes in the second generation Fétish used. It generates a maximum torque of 380 Newton meters, the minimum rest between zero and 6,000 rpm. The liquid-cooled engine spins up to 12,500 rpm high. Power is transmitted to an input gear with fixed gear ratios.
