A STAN D-U P-D R I VE battery.1t electric van has been built by Smith's Electric Vehicles, Ltd., Gateshead-on-Tyne, for operation in Canada. One model is already being successfully run by Acme Dairies, of Toronto. A similar vehicle is to be sent to Vancouver.
A demonstration vehicle Of normal type sent to Vancouver earlier in the year was sold to Jersey Farm Dairies and this concern has ordered two more. The stand-up-drive model is at present being made only for the Canadian market.
In conjunction with its Toronto distributor, the Dairy, Brewery Equipment and Engineering division of O'Donnell Mackie, Ltd., Smith's will take space at next year's BPitish motor exhibition in Toronto.
