Just as the competition for the Think City electric car appears to be hotting up, the car-one of the first electric cars available in the UK-ups its game with the introduction of a four seat version, which goes on sale across Europe this month.
Manufactured by Norwegian car maker, Think, the new four seat electric car becomes available in Europe just as the firm faces competition from the likes of Nissan and Mitsubishi which also imminently launch electric models. The news of the four seat variant of the City is announced at an exciting time for Think, as it expands its presence in the US too, beginning of manufacture of the two seat City in Indiana (see story).
Powered by a lithium-ion battery and now with air-conditioning as standard, the latest generation Think City can maintain speeds of 70mph and can travel up to 100 miles on a single charge.
The latest generation model also comes complete with the Think G4 EV Drive Controller, a fourth generation proprietary power electronics system underpinning the Think City EV. The advanced EV system offers key benefits such as enhanced technical safety, improved real world range, efficiency gains and improved functionality and flexibility.
With the additional reassurance of a five-year warranty (or 100,000km – whichever occurs first) on both the car and the battery, there has never been a better time to enter the new and exciting world of EVs.
“At the heart of everything THINK does is flexibility to the customer – and we have just taken this a step further this Christmas with the introduction for the first time of the 2+2 seating configuration. Want to take the kids to school? You’ve got it! You need to carry a heavy load? No problem, the seats stow away giving largely the same load space as before,” said THINK Chief Marketing Officer, Michael Lock. “These advantages, coupled with our technical enhancements make the THINK City unquestionably the most attractive EV on the market.”
