On tour in Berlin with two great companions – smart x SALZEN

What do smart and SALZEN have in common?
They both stand for lifestyle, design, urbanity and sustainability.

Since beginning of 2018, smart only offers all-electric cars any longer. It was the first car manufacturer worldwide that fully switched from combustion engines to emission-free, battery-electric drive technology. And already since 2007, smart has offered a fully electric version in every generation.
The smart EQ fortwo is the perfect companion in the city. Besides its compact size, it is silent, emission-free and agile. With its range of up to 159 km (NEFZ) – just right for all routes in the city as well as the surrounding countryside. We tested the limited model – the smart EQ fortwo edition bluedawn. The iconic smart design meets elegant blue matt and glossy black accents plus trim parts and wheels from BRABUS.

Smart features help you to make your everyday life in the city easier. The Control app is one of them. It allows you to keep an eye on important information such as your current battery status and range, all from your smartphone. You can also find parking spots via the app or you can share your smart with family and friends.

Charging the smart EQ is also pretty easy. With the optional 22 kW charger, within 40 minutes your smart is charged from 10 to 80% at a wallbox or charging station. If you charge your smart with a 4.6 kW on-board charger at a wallbox or charging station, it takes less than 3.5 hours. And at your normal household socket up to 6 hours.

Not only the smart EQ is the perfect companion for the city that commutes us easily from A to B with no problem to find a parking spot, so are the backpacks from SALZEN as they help us to organise our daily lifes and to focus on what matters most.

SALZEN stands for a new kind of business backpacks that supports the modern generation in its lifestyle. Their designs aim at simplicity, modernity, functionality and high quality. SALZEN takes care of sustainability as well as of an environmentally-friendly and socially responsible production. Offering different styles, colours and materials, you will definitely find the right one for you either for business or travel.
