The Smart E.V.

If you are looking for a 2 passenger car to commute across town, no storage space and not much power over 45 mph then the Smart Car may be the choice for you. The small body in conjunction with a diesel engine makes it possible to achieve up to 70 mpg. Diesel engines are more efficient than gasoline and inherently low in hydrocarbon and CO2 emissions. The big surprise with this small car is the results being attained on safety crash tests, performing better than much larger and heavier cars.
 The Smart Car, made by Mercedes-benz, has turned out to be extremely popular with the dramatic rise in fuel prices. This car isn't the answer for everyone, however. Larger individuals, and drivers seeking good acceleration, will be disappointed. A Micro Hybrid version of the Smart Fortwo is being introduced in 2008. This model will be one of the most environment friendly cars available to the general public.
