Electric Mercedes Benz

June 9th, 2010 posted by

With electric vehicles set to form an increasing part of Mercedes Benz’s product plan, it’s no surprise that the company is forging ahead with installing charging points around the UK and continuing its smart fortwo electric drive trial.  Designated charging bays have now been set up at seven locations, including Mercedes-Benz World in Surrey and Mercedes-Benz UK in Milton Keynes.  Apparently 72% of the 264 people taking part in the company’s trial have so far said they would be happy to switch from their lead-filled cars to this new electric form of transport.  The company plans to expand the trial later this year to encourage more customers to make the electric switchover.
