The Chinese company Pocco has unveiled photos of the new model Meimei - a super-compact electric vehicle designed for two people. According to the Autohome portal, its sales will start on March 12. The price has not yet been announced.

• The Meimei is 33.5 centimeters longer than the Smart ForTwo, but 16 centimeters narrower and 3.5 centimeters lower than its German counterpart. The dimensions of the Chinese hatchback are as follows: 3025x1500x1515 mm. Headlights and lanterns are LED.
• The electric motor is one, but in two versions. The Pocco can be ordered with 14 or 20 hp. The capacity of the lithium phosphate battery is 9.2 or 14 kWh. The range with the latter, according to CarNewsChina, is 120 kilometers versus 93 kilometers for Smart ForTwo. MacPherson struts are installed in the front and rear suspension.
• The interior is brightly decorated in red or green with chrome inserts and black lacquer. A multimedia touch screen is installed on the front panel, the list of equipment includes a multifunctional steering wheel, parking sensors, air conditioning, a rear-view camera, and tire pressure sensors. Behind a pair of seats is a third door that gives access to a small luggage compartment.

• In early March, the Chinese company Hozon Auto presented an updated version of the NetU electric crossover. Now its top version has a range of 610 kilometers per charge. "Transparent" front pillars with AMOLED screens have become more functional: they can display auxiliary data. You can park your car remotely by leaving the driver's seat.
