Smart have announced two world premieres for this
year's Geneva Motor Show. Based on the ForTwo Cabrio, the first one bares the
Brabus Edition #2 moniker and will become available for order starting with
March 7, from € 26,750 (US$ 28,300), on the German market.
Setting it apart from the regular models are the
silver paintwork, red soft top, 'Brabus edition #2' lettering in the mirror
triangle, sports suspension that lowers its ride by 10 mm, and 16-inch Brabus
Monoblock VII alloy wheels, wrapped in 185/50 front and 205/45 rear tires.
The small city car also benefits from a
leather-wrapped 3-spoke multifunction steering wheel with paddle shifters, and
brushed stainless steel sports pedals with rubber studs, in addition to a bunch
of standard packages. These add rain and light sensors, fog lamps with
cornering light, 7-inch infotainment system, electrically adjustable and heated
side mirrors, height-adjustable driver's seat and steering column, and more.
Powering the new Smart ForTwo Cabrio Brabus Edition
#2 is a three-cylinder turbocharged engine that develops 90 horses and works in
conjunction with a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission. It needs around 4.2 liters
of petrol every 100 km (56 mpg US) and emits 97 g/km of CO2.
Joining it on the showroom floor is the Smart
ForFour Crosstown Edition, with a special outdoor look that includes detachable
parts on the outside. Buyers can get it in various exterior colors, although
the model coming to Geneva features a graphite grey with a black tridio safety
cell.
Set to reach dealers starting this fall, subsequent
to its mid-July launch, it features a wide range of standard equipment that
includes black-finished 16-inch alloy wheels with 185/50 front and 205/45 rear
tires, Smart lettering on the wheel arch liners, sports suspension, and
chrome-plated tailpipe trim.
Inside, buyers will get to enjoy the leather-wrapped
3-spoke multifunction steering wheel with grey stitching, sports pedals, Smart
Audio-System with Bluetooth, AUX/USB, and audio streaming, alongside the
automatic climate control, heat-insulating, dark-tinted glass for the rear
windows, and others.
The Smart ForFour Crosstown Edition is powered by
the exact same engine as the ForTwo Cabrio Brabus Edition #2, but instead of
the automatic gearbox, it uses a 5-speed manual transmission. Combined fuel
consumption and CO2 emissions stand at 4.3 l/100 km (54.7 mpg US) and 99g/km,
respectively.
