When the Smartt Fortwo arrives in the U.S. in early 2008, parent company DaimlerChrysler doesn't want to repeat past mistakes. The first Smartt hit the European market in 1998, but the brand has never been profitable. With the new Fortwo, Smartt is starting anew with a car tailor-made for the United States. Standard safety features include four airbags, ABS and stability control. The U.S. Fortwo will have increased cabin and trunk space and a new 1.0-liter 3-cylinder engine making 84 bhp, mated to a refined semi-automatic transmission. Company executives claim the car will get about 40 mpg.

The Smart is one of the gayest looking cars ever. This car makes the Volkswagen New Beetle look almost virile.

It looks like a death trap! A friend of mine has a Celica, and it's pretty small, I couldn't imagine riding around in one of these things. I'll stick to my SUV.
Here's a link for all the safety belt wearers in the house  -> Smart crash test
Wow, I have to say that i'm impressed by the crash test. It held up remarkably well, and they tested it at 70mph!!
Yes, but in the end you will end up like the Burg, in a wheel chair with no legs at a minimum. The laws of physics don't lie, if you are bigger than the other guy, your going to win.

You're probably right, but for the most part, that was a good crash test. I was expecting the thing to explode like a Pinto or something. Personally, I couldn't drive a car that small though... not a fan of small spaces at all. The gas milage is good, around 40mpg, but my SUV gets around 25, plus I can carry 5 passengers, and cargo.

If this little buggy got around 80 miles the gallon, you might get a bunch of tree huggers from Portland to use it around town to run errands, but that's about it. At 40 mpg, there's not enough distance from some of the other offerings to get any market share. This thing is doomed in the States.

I think it really depends on how they price it. Around this area, the poorer folks and a lot of people living in the city tend to drive Chevy Cobalts or Ford Focus'. They're cheap, and get relatively good gas milage. Something like this might be right up their alley. I have no clue whether it'll actually take off or not, but it seems like the market is there.

Damn, your right. We'll be seeing these fucking things parked beside every doublewide throughout the South. They will become flying projectiles during tornado season. lol

Lol, at least they're not very big projectiles! Coming to a trailer park near you.....
