Smart, a brand of tiny cars made by Germany’s Daimler AG, was on hand to show off its existing models even thought the company has effectively sold out its planned number of cars to import for the next two years.
Roger Penske, CEO of Smart’s exclusive distributor United Auto Group, said that the company has been pleasantly surprised at the high level of equipment buyers are specifying for their Smart cars.
“This is not a customer who is buying the car because it’s cheap,” he said. “People are also interested in its user-friendliness and fuel economy,” he added.
Smart’s strength isn’t just limited to the Big Apple and Hollywood, either. Pittsburgh has racked up big sales for the company too, Penske reported. “Places like that are dying for cars,” he said.
Sold Out?? I keep hearing that a person can go and get a orphan just like that! That doesn't sound sold out. You don't even need a reservation. Maybe some extra money.
No, I'm doing it, too. Yes, there are a few cheaper cars out there - but the smart has abilities, features, and style that the other don't, and make this the car for me.
It has more bang for the buck than anything out there.
