Smart is itself ironic. At the Detroit Auto Show (14 to 22 January 2012) in the country on large pick-ups, the small-car brand in front of their vision of a pickup truck.
The model nomenclature in line with the For-Us-called tiny two-seater would fit easily into the back of one of its major U.S. brethren. What bizarre at first glance, is actually quite a practical core.
For the nearly 90 centimeters long platform behind the driver and front passenger seat has indeed no place for quads or sports is, but certainly for the transport of two electric bicycles. And the bikes can be recharged from a wall outlet while on board the vehicle.
All electric:
Equipped with a 75 hp electric motor, the Smart Pick up as the basis for emission-free car trips to destinations that are not by car to reach normally. If the small car park, it goes on two wheels on in parks or forests.
Compared with the series of smart pick-up is increased significantly. Of 3.55 meters, it has increased in length by only about 85 centimeters. Even with width and height, there is a plus. This on the one hand provide a powerful look, on the other hand, increase load capacity. Access to the platform via an electric door that slides open before the cargo floor for easier loading, including downward.
Serial no chance:
Opportunities to implement a series of pick-up has hardly. The show car is in the U.S. especially for the soon-coming electric Smart , and also promote car-sharing project Car2go making known that runs out in various European cities, also in Austin, Texas.
