TH!NK to Re-enter U.S. Car Market

In partnership with two North American clean tech investement firms, TH!INK car company is preparing to launch the TH!NK City, a four seat (two child seats in rear) micro car that can travel 100 miles on a fully charged sodium OR lithium-ion battery at a top speed of 62 mph. Th!nk was owned by Ford Motor Co. from 1999 to 2003, a period during which 1000 electric 'city cars', designed for use in urbanized environments, were primarily sold in the California and New York City markets.

Think City

The soon to be launched Th!nk City, pictured here, will be approximately 2 feet longer and 1400 lbs heavier than the Smart FourTwo, which measures 98' in length and weighs in at about 1600 lbs. Much of this additional weight (555 lbs) is due to the large battery pack.
