You'll only find unusual solutions by asking unusual questions. "Open your mind" - question the status quo, take a different angle and risk a fresh approach - these are all essential to discovering new horizons. This is demonstrated by the smart fortwo - an extraordinary vehicle concept for greater mobility in ever denser urban traffic, a concept that simply makes more intelligent use of the ever diminishing space available in our towns and cities.

In the smart fortwo you'll soon discover a host of new places to park, because even the smallest parking space is suddenly big enough. At the same time, you'll enjoy an amazing feeling of space inside and a boot that has no problems accommodating your shopping and luggage. In addition, the raised seat position offers a clearer overall view of the traffic situation and makes boarding and alighting from the car particularly comfortable.

Meanwhile, the fuel gauge shows very little movement. Small wonder, in view of the economical engines and the low overall weight. This lack of ballast is due in part to the bodypanels ¡V body components in high-quality thermoplastic. The particularly light bodypanels contribute to an excellent power/weight ratio, resulting in improved performance and reduced fuel consumption. Above all, they are delightfully robust and scratch-resistant, shrugging off light bumps practically unscathed.

As you can see, there's more to the smart fortwo than meets the eye.
