Smart forfood concept
Smart
held the world premiere of the Smart forfood concept at the 2016 Bologna Motor
Show. The concept features a portable kitchen
in a Smart ForTwo.
The Smart forfood concept has
been created under the direction of the renowned chef Davide Oldani, who also
happens to be the brand ambassador of Mercedes-Benz Italy and Lavazza, and by
partnering with leading companies in food industry and special equipment,
including Focaccia Group and Medici Style.
The
Smart forfood concept is unique, has all the essentials and sees a great level
of attention to detail. The portable kitchen in the boot features an induction
plate, a juice extractor, an espresso machine, a fridge, refrigerated bottle
racks and designer cutlery and plates in the boot. The exterior and interior
have been given some unique styling, with the latter featuring white seat
covers with cutlery theme. D’O branding of chef Davide Oldani’s restaurant can
also be seen around the car.
Daimler doesn’t say it, but it’s
obvious that the Smart forfood concept is just a show car without production
plans. The standard Smart fortwo is available with a 61 hp 1.0-litre
three-cylinder petrol, 71 hp 1.0-litre three-cylinder petrol and 90 hp 1.0-litre turbo petrol engines. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a
5-speed manual transmission or the 6-speed twinamic dual-clutch automatic
transmission.
