This Wild Electric Car Shrinks To Squeeze Into Tight Parking – SlashGear

Active Width Adjustment technology is used to pull off all the shaping changes. “Performance Mode” allows the wider 4.5-foot stance to give the CT-1 more stability on the open road. Not that you’ll need it because top speed is only 55 mph (Sammy Hagar would not be happy). The battery provides a range somewhere between 75 miles and 112 miles (via City Transformer).

When you’re looking for a parking space in the city, you can use “City Mode,” which slims the car down to a svelte 3.3 feet. Its microscopic size allows four CT-1s to fit inside one regular spot and frees up nearby parking by as much as 75%. Speed is capped at 28 mph while in the city. If you’re curious, it can “zip” from a standstill to 31 mph in 5 seconds (via City Transformer). Best not to drag-race anyone — including bicyclists — in this thing.

Additionally, the car contains a mere 1,500 parts. By comparison, an internal combustion engine (ICE) has 25,000, while a normal EV has 8,000 (via ElectricCarsReport.com).

CT took home the gold prize for the CT-1 at the 2022 German Innovation Awards. Pre-orders are being taken now, but production won’t begin until the end of 2024 (via Autoweek). With an MSRP of only $14,000, it would be a steal. Unfortunately, the CT-1 would never meet stringent National Highway Traffic Safety Administration regulations here in the United States, so we won’t be able to play “Find where the CT-1 is parked” any time soon. Too bad, because that would be fun.
