Range Extender
With the optional Range Extender, the mindset becomes a hybrid vehicle at the flick of a switch. Whether you keep the compact petrol engine permanently on board, stow it in the garage when not in use, or even just want to rent one for the weekend, installing and demounting the Range Extender in the boot is simplicity itself. It also has no appreciable effect on performance. As an electricity generator, it simply serves to recharge the batteries, and extends the driving range of the mindset by many hundreds of kilometers – and all with just one tankfull of petrol. Even though, in hybrid mode, the mindset can’t be driven entirely emission-free, through the Range Extender it still consumes only minimal amounts of energy and produces minimal emissions.
