A Dud.

I would not recommend this car to my worst enemy yet alone friends or family.

Pros

  • Visibility: I had to pick one of the above, so you can see out of the windows and that’s about it. do not like this car. I have had it 3 months and have less than 100 miles on it because I am afraid to drive it.
  • Seat Comfort: The seat believe or not is comfortable all other things considered.
  • Power: There is no power to this car. It’s slow to start and slower to drive. It feels like the engine will cut off as soon as you start driving. Terrible!!

Cons

  • Braking: Braking is horrible. You think that you are not going to stop but at the last minute it does. But it does roll backwards on a hill!
  • Ride and Handling: The ride is very clunky you feel every bump on the road and the handling is hard because the steering is way tight.
  • Technology and Entertainment: Entertainment I guess is suppose to be the radio but there are no stations that you can get. If you have blue tooth the big thing in the middle of your console blocks the buttons you have to push.

ok

No one works on these cars anymore. limmited dealerships to service them.

Pros

  • Value: good value only.

Daimler Benz Quality Built in Germany

It's a great wife / girl car for local and city travel.

Pros

  • Fuel Economy: Great fuel economy.
  • Cost to Maintain: CarMax stepped up and fixed everything during the 90 day warranty period. Very happy with their service dept.
  • Styling: My wife loves the styling of the Smart for Two. Most folks do and she gets compliments often.

Cons

  • Technology and Entertainment: Radio and blue tooth technology needs updating.
  • Visibility: The smart for two has poor rear view mirror and side view mirrors. They need a back up camera too.
  • Cargo Space: There is no room for even a small donut spare. I made room for tire change tools.

This price does not include tax, title, and tags. Additional fees may also apply depending on the state of purchase.
