However, because of the duty cycle used by the Postal Service, which generally amounts to only about 18-20 miles per day on a fixed route, these vehicles are being built without the range extender seen on the concept. The extended-range version will be focused on retail customers. Follow us on Twitter!

Reply ↓ ↑ report 14 Mikey G 3:10PM (4/23/2009) If Chrysler, Tesla, Fisker and the rest of these companies would stop wasting time developing 2 seater electric sports cars and start building the hybrids that people need for kids, groceries and everyday life for everyday people they would be much better off.

At these prices, people are buying the "environmental feature" -- they want to be among the first owners of the worlds cleanest extended-range vehicles. Today youd do it to be one of the first to drive the worlds cleanest extended range vehicle; in the future, youll do it because its an obvious and affordable win!

Nonetheless, I do agree that it wastes of energy, reduces range and should NOT be mandatory. a cyclist is much quieter, and these cars do have horns still for people what step out in front. Must be nice to know that deafies are actually smarter than those hearie idiots! I know this and I speak for them. because I am one.

Merc wants the electric smart to perform badly, to have a short range and little power, so that it dosent eat up other products in the lineup. It is probably possible to make a 20k electric smart that outperforms most other cars on the road in everything except range and top speed. For this to happen there has to be a detuning process.
