Slightly newSmartcar Website

I just checked the smartusa.com site slightly different look but not much new except the roadshow map has been replaced with a dealership map!

The language sounds like they have been hearing much of what is constantly discussed on this board.

Looks like they came up with 33/41 for the 2008 EPA figures.

I thought they gave some good info.



We know that many smart enthusiasts have been anticipating the formal announcement of our dealerships around the country. In addition, our Reservation Holders are patiently awaiting phone calls from their local dealer regarding formalizing their order.

At this time, smart USA will begin announcing the majority of our dealerships through out the month of January, and as they open throughout the balance of the year. This is to ensure that all national and state government requisites have been met by smart USA and the local dealers. After the announcement has been made, dealers will begin calling Reservation Holders to discuss the status of their reservations and formalize purchase agreements and delivery of confirmed orders.

We are on track to open the majority of our dealerships by the end of January, and begin deliveries when dealerships open. Until then, we will continue to contact groups of Reservation Holders by email weekly with our Reservation Confirmation Program.

smart USA appreciates your continued patience and enthusiasm for the arrival of the smart fortwo. Please continue to direct questions about your the smart fortwo or Reservations to 1.800.smart.USA or by using the “Contact Us” tab on www.smartusa.com.

Things start moving the end of January.

We heard that number a few months ago and hoping it was not true. Very disappointing if that's the official number.

For a gasser, and with the revised 2008 EPA tests, that's actually pretty good.

I like the revised dealer map - it should keep everyone itching for a formal announcement happy, since they can clearly see if there will be one in their neck of the woods or not.

One of the lists has one in Latham, NY but it doesn't seem to be on the map...

Bad map skills or later opening I suppose.... (hope)
