Debuts New Electric Drive Technology
Smart, the car manufacturer that either invented the modern urban car or simply updated the BMW Isetta bubble car to work in today’s world, has announced what seems like a highly logical, inevitable, and, dare I say, “smart” step: All smart models will now come with a full EV drivetrain as an option.
