No, there's a different car called the Capri. Same drivetrain underneath but a very different body design.

The M Sport hybrid starts at £51k, the BEV is £74k, but you can get a Sport version for under £68k.

Nope, it’s typicall NCM chemistry the same like on the other MEB models

Thanks Ivan! Getting a van?

​@@WhichEVmight be to convert to an EV Camper next year so looking at options.

Did you go for the yellow?

@@WhichEV Red, the wife fancied the yellow and black roof but her E208 is that colour already. Not new, ex demo 14 miles on clock, registered July.

@@Stebs_Paintings The yellow is iconic! But I bet you got a good deal on that ex-demo car.

@@WhichEV Indeed nearly 7k

Perfect for Middle East?

Glad you enjoyed it!

The Touring version might.

Is that why there out selling Tesla in Europe?

That may be because the lease companies expect higher residual values.

Nah, not at today's prices.

@@WhichEV as a cabbie I can assure you it's cheaper to run on petrol in London

@@richard9444 If you say so. Depends where you charge though. Some of the London public chargers are extortionate. Overnight home charging will be a different story though.

@@WhichEV not enough miles on full EV , London doesn't have enough chargers most cab drivers live in the suburbs,ok to charge at home but time you get in to central and do a few jobs it's run out

@@richard9444 Fair comment - I've heard that mentioned before. But I've also seen these charging on the street in London. Do you reckon that with more / cheaper street chargers in London it would be better?

Made in Japan? They still haven't admitted that they murdered millions in World War 2...

@@WhichEV That generation are dead. The Chinese are our enemies now. Japan is our ally.

@@WhichEVcheeky point but Japan has embraced democracy ( no longer has a supreme leader), IP rights and freedom of speach.

It depends if you can find local charging. If there are street chargers then that's the best, but you'd want them within walking distance so you can pop your car on one overnight every week or so.

Did you travel with just a strip of cardboard?

@@WhichEV Theorem: Amount of luggage is defined as to occupy 100% of space available, regardless of number of participants and duration of a trip.

Pretty sure this two-seater version is gone in this form. The company is going in a different direction, albeit still urban focused.

@@WhichEV I heard from SMART that they will actually continue with the Fortwo platform but it will be under a new name. So guess we wait and find out what they have in store for us.

@@NorthernNomad93 Hope you're right! It's a great format.

@@WhichEV as we know Smart is starting to expand with new types of models some being SUV's. In the article where Smart was discussing the newer models they were asked about the ForTwo and they had said with it being their flagship vehicle they will definitely continue that albeit under a new name.

@@NorthernNomad93 That is great to hear! I'm sure it will be under a new name because the Geely partnership is updating the drivetrains completely.

They had a yellow one at the launch but we didn't get to drive it.

You were talking about the car, right?

In the UK it's flat-packs for furniture you build yourself.

Not the design, but manufacturing, yes.

@@WhichEV I should say 80% Chinese as brand and design are British

@@RIZFERD Could be

Yes, metal. Newly invented chinese fabric metal.

It's made of cloth.

We agree!

Why would you buy an open top sports car and then want an AI bot to drive it for you?

Thanks!

There's always a subjective choice in any car design.

@@WhichEV , fully agree. I was just expressing my personal feelings.

@@planetandpeoplefirst And you're perfectly okay to have them. Buy the car you like! 😀

Nice arrows to my preference, especially for here is super busy traffic in Southeast Asia

@@RIZFERD Malaysia? KL traffic is insane!

It's a Cyber Roadster.

Cybertruck is rubbish

@@RIZFERD A very different vehicle...

Thanks for the kind words!

It's the main thing we criticised. It was definitely designed that way because the concept had a yoke. We don't think it's a dealbreaker, but it does prevent the Cyberster from being perfect.

Yes and yoke is an option in china

yes better then com from western USA canot make car any more even HD move boing you heard the story can not go back made usa

Par for the course with EVs currently, unfortunately.

@@WhichEV The Dacia Spring EV are more light weight than todays gasoline and diesel cars ! So I will say it is because most car makers are lazy !!!

@@JohnCross-rz5uq nope, it's because batteries are still heavy. The Dacia Spring EV has a third of the battery capacity of this car. Hence it's much lighter. Also less than half the WLTP range.

@@WhichEV I do NOT think that it is the truth, car makers are lazy, so long as customers buy big and heavy cars, they do not make cars lighter, what do you REALLY need a car for !!!? NOT to drive 200mph ! NOT to do 0-60 in 3 seconds, most buy a car to try to have a "better" car than their neighbor, not to their own need. So it is easy to be a car seller ! Car reviewers do most often no good for cars AND car buyers !

@@JohnCross-rz5uq It's not about need, it's about want. Nobody needs a car that fast, but they want it. If you want a cheap, efficient EV buy the Dacia Spring. Different cars for different people.

Those could be coming. We've not heard specifically about them yet, but there will be a lot of new MG cars in the next year.

A fully electric black cab would be useless, that’s why. A taxi driver isn’t going to want to sit around at a public charger after a day driving around London, and how many of them have the luxury of living in a property where they can home charge? Not many is my guess.

@@mikeolly67 these cabs are limited to 22kw chargers, a fully electric car can take 150kw, so they’d take more charge in the same amount of time.

@@birchy8624 Not true. It can do DC at 50kW as well. Doesn't take that long to recharge because the battery isn't huge.

@@mikeolly67 Works fine for Uber drivers. Loads of them are going all-electric in London and loving it.

@@WhichEV I love that this transition is happening, I just find it such a shame to not scrap the engine and just focus on an all electric cab with over 250 miles. We needed hybrids when EVs only had an 80 mile range but now there is no excuse. It just ends up being more a pain for the driver since they have to charge more frequently.
