This high price is the reason Mercedes-Benz has not yet put any of its high-end electric vehicles into production. We do have to give Tesla credit though, for its long battery range. It can travel up to 250 miles on a full charge
By use of adjustable aerodynamics, this hybrid concept car might be even more efficient than a Tesla. The body automatically transforms at different speeds to optimize air-flow around the car.
