The NEW Smart Car!

First, people thought that the regular Smart car was crazy. But what will people say about this one! The all new 2016 Smart car Fortwo is a more sporty car, compared to its ancestor, with its powertrain, premium features, and body structure have all been revised. 

As the old Smart car, the engine is found in the rear of the car, behind the passenger seats. In Europe, the specs of the engine is a 1 liter, 3 cylinder engine, with 71 hp and 67 lb-ft of torque. This new car will also be available with an electric powertrain as well, according to Mercedes Benz. Additionally, the transmission of the car will be either a five speed automated gearbox or a five speed manual gearbox. 

This car has had a safety test against that new S-Class, which has a 2:1 weight ratio to the Smart car. Surprisingly, the interior of the car was barely touched, and there was minimal damage because the body that protects the interior of the car was not moved.

The interior of the car has also improved, with a dashboard, highlighted with number of options that include smartphone integration, navigation, a touchscreen, and a premium JBL sound system. Additionally, this car has taken some of the "floating" dashboard idea that is implemented in the C and S class sedans. 

The best part about this car is the price, which just starts at $15,000.
