What it Looks Like

Looking like an Easter egg on wheels, the Smart Fortwo is 8.8 feet long, 5.1 feet tall, and 5.1 feet wide. Decked out in the dual-color plastic body panels that have been a characteristic of the brand since it debuted in 1998, the design emphasizes the Fortwo’s high-strength steel “tridion” safety cell that “protects its occupants like a nut.” Other details include the coupe’s polycarbonate panoramic roof, standard projection headlights, and snazzy alloy wheels. The split rear hatch creates a tailgate for parties involving 100-calorie snack packs or easily converts into a tapas bar.
