Urban Applications

Fast acceleration and zero emissions, perfect for start-stop applications.

Smith Electric Vehicles are designed to provide maximum performance in any closed urban application.

The Smith Newton (available in GVW 7.5t to 12t) is perfectly suited for depot- based fleets, engaged in lower-mileage, multi drop/collection intra-city operations on congested roads.

The Smith Edison (available in GVW 3.5t to 4.6t) is agile and responsive and is perfectly suited for intra-city deliveries.

All vehicles can accelerate from 0-30mph much faster than their diesel equivalents and have a range in excess of 100 miles on one battery charge.
