The �Think City� and the �Ranger EV� are fully electric, zero emission vehicles that are being leased from the Ford Motor Company. It�s part of a two-year trial to see how electric vehicles can be integrated into the City�s existing, conventionally-powered fleet.
The �Think City� is a dramatically designed two-seater that uses nickel cadmium batteries for power, and can travel up to 60 km per charge, at speeds up to 90 km/h. It�s built of recyclable plastics and materials.
The �Ranger EV� looks like, and is built much like, a conventional pickup truck, except that it�s powered by lead acid batteries. It can travel up to 70km on a single charge, with a top speed of over 100 km/h (exact speed and range vary depending on the road conditions and the remaining battery charge).
