The CT-2

Wow...this is one small car! Good on this Israel-based  start-up! I'm not sure how safe I would feel driving but then again I did drive a motorcycle.


 

With the EU’s ambitions for green urban mobility, there’s likely to be less and less parking space in cities in Europe in the future.

Paris, for instance, decided in 2020 to remove some 70,000 surface parking spots to make the city greener and more people-friendly.

One of Europe’s greenest capitals, Copenhagen, passed a proposal this year to free up 600 out of 1,050 public parking spots in the city centre by 2024.

This may be a sign of the times for some drivers. But an Israel-based start-up, City Transformer, may have the answer to parking woes with its all-electric urban microcar, the CT-2.

At only 1 m wide in "city mode," the slim car is narrow enough for four of the vehicles to fit into a standard parking spot.
