Smart Concept #2: preview of successor Fortwo
The current model range, consisting of the Smart #1, #3 and #5, was designed by the Mercedes-Benz Global Design Team. With the new models, the brand further focuses on electric urban mobility.
Smart Concept #2
The Smart Concept #2 is a preview of the all-electric Smart #2. The model is designed by Mercedes-Benz as a compact two-seater. The body features a matte white with warm gold color scheme and leather details in the interior.
Concrete outlook
Wolfgang Ufer, CEO of Smart Europe, said: “For me personally, it is a very special moment to present the Smart Concept #2 as the first concrete prospect for the reinvention of our iconic two-seater. The Global Brand Event marks an important starting point for this new chapter of Smart, which will reach a strong peak in Europe this fall. Combining the creativity and passion of our Mercedes-Benz design team, the Concept #2 offers a clear vision of the future qualities of the Smart #2. It is a vehicle shaped to the way European Smart customers really live and move – effortlessly, agile and efficient.”
Pure city car
Kai Sieber, Head of Design Smart at Mercedes-Benz Design, adds: “We believe a city car should be more than a problem solver; it should inspire joy. Continuing the heritage of the fortwo’s iconic design, the Concept #2 translates our bold personality into a new era where ‘Function becomes Fashion’. It is not just about smart utility, but serves as a true extension of personal identity.”
