Electric

 

An electric car is a car powered by an electric motor rather than a fuel/diesel engine.  From the outside you would probably have no idea that a car is electric.  When you drive an electric car often the only thing that clues you in to its true nature is the fact that it is nearly silent.

Electric vehicles, with zero congestion charges, zero road tax and zero operator licence requirements, are both quiet and pollution free.  All those 'zeros' add up to big savings over the life of the vehicle with close to zero effect on our environment.

Green Motion Vehicle Rental is currently reviewing the viability of offering all electric vehicles for hire.  We are pleased to be a participant in the trial of the Mercedes Benz Smart ED and are assessing the merits of the commercial vehicles (vans) on offer from Modec and Smiths.

Electric vehicles currently available for purchase in the United Kingdom are:

G-Whiz
NICE - Mega City
Modec
Smiths

 

Mercedes Benz (Smart) is currently developing the Smart ED - Electric Drive which is currently on trial.  This all electric Smart Car currently has a range of 70 miles on one charge with a top speed of 65mph.  Mitsubishi Motors are also looking to develop a full scale production electric car.
