Smart unveils new electric model with 300 km range

Smart has introduced a new fully electric city car capable of travelling up to 300 kilometres on a single charge. Developed in Germany, the vehicle uses a high‑capacity lithium‑ion battery and can be charged to 80 % in about 30 minutes with rapid‑charge technology. It is equipped with advanced driver‑assistance features, a touchscreen infotainment system and full smartphone connectivity, targeting urban drivers seeking low‑emission mobility. The launch positions Smart to compete more aggressively in the compact EV segment and highlights the brand’s shift toward greater energy efficiency and practicality.

Industry observers note that the 300‑km range narrows the gap between ultra‑compact city cars and larger electric models, potentially expanding Smart’s appeal beyond its traditional niche.
