On your pocket
The Think City isn’t cheap. The UK price will be an eye-watering £14,000, and you’ll have to pay around £140 per month for a ‘mobility pack’ which covers you for a replacement battery if it goes wrong or wears out.
On your conscience
The car’s emissions-free range has improved and charging through an ordinary plug takes about eight hours for 80 per cent charge. You’ll be zipping to and fro on the back streets of London’s inner congestion zone in this little two-seater and actually feel as though you’re welcome to do it.
On your drive?
If you're in the market for a pure-electric city car, the Think City is worth consideration. It is now hugely more capable than the old version we had back in 2000, simply because it can zip here and there within a 30-mile radius of its charging point.
However, even with the cost savings you'll make on fuel, parking, congestion and tax, the Think City is an expensive car. It’s pricey but practical, wacky but fun.
