BTW I read an interesting article today. At Mercedes (Daimler) they are quite happy they got of the EV train early after some concepts cars. The only electric cars they make at Daimler are sold under the brand called 'Smart' which are two-seat micro cars. These have a low top speed so they are not very suitable to drive on the highway.
Yep, the Smart is a typical city car, and it was a smart
move from Daimler/Smart to offer an e-version.
Once, i drove a petrol Smart (TwoFour, don't know which engine, was a rental car) on a highway from Munich to Frankfurt. The little bugger made 160 km/h flat out. I am 2m tall and i wouldn't call the car uncomfortable. So i would say at least the petrol version(s) are suitable for highway. But since the car is somewhat sensitive for crosswinds at these speeds due to its small wheel base, doing this would not be recommendable for the faint-hearted
