If you like you can leave your answers in the comments section below. Here's some information about the smart forjeremy.
The smart forjeremy is based on a standard smart fortwo and has a 55kW electric motor with a range of 90 miles. This means as well as range anxiety you may suffer from violence anxiety if it runs out of electricity in Liverpool city centre. It was designed by Jeremy Scott, a fashion designer and was launched at the LA Auto Show last night. Thankfully the former singer with the band Skunk Anansie, Skin, wasn't asked to design the car.
Here are some quotes from the press release.
“Both smart and the wings represent a bit of freedom on the crowded streets of major cities."
"The wheel rims are shaped like aeroplane propellers, giving the impression that the electric smart might take off at any minute. With the elegantly curved “eyebrows” above its front headlights, the smart forjeremy conveys both untamed curiosity and unbridled joy"
"On either side of the vehicle is a wing made of transparent fibreglass and decorated with rocket-shaped elements that light up red, serving as rear and brake lights."
“We will also launch a limited special edition of the smart forjeremy in 2013. And I really look forward to cruising the city in this item of haute couture.”
Nice.
Final question.
h) During a global financial depression and with ever tightening profit margins is the smart forjeremy a sensible investment or a monumental waste of money?
