Smart Cars of America is the dynamic center for all things Smart, and has been offering the latest information to a highly motivated and loyal audience of consumers, dealers, and other members of the Smart Car community since 2001.

The Smart Car Fortwo reflects the technological wizardry and innovation of the new millennium, perfectly matching the contemporary social trends of the big cities, where many people's lifestyles mean they don't need more than two seats. Furthermore, the Smart Car’s faithful supporters prefer something that's small, stylish, and fun.

Utterly unique in its appearance and feel, and with its luxurious appointments, the Smart Car is exhilarating to drive and as responsive in its handling as it is responsible to the environment.

The 2008 Smart Car Fortwo is a tiny, fuel-sipping city car for those whose daily driving limits them to congested downtown streets. The Smart Car is truly innovative because it matches contemporary social trends for big cities, where many people's lifestyle means they don't need more than two seats, and they prefer something that's small, stylish, and fun.

Metropolitan drivers will love this car for its nimble driving features, its fuel-saving capacity, and its knockout design. Now, you can be smart by turning our love of driving into your love of driving Smart.

The Smart Car makes parallel parking obsolete - no more craning your neck to wedge your way into a parking spot that’s just too tight to fit your car into.

Now you can simply park perpendicularly and walk away. The Smart Car is a powerful little burst of energy with exceptional maneuverability and a passion for hugging street curves. Engineered by Mercedes-Benz, the Smart ForTwo boasts impressive engineering and a zippy 71-hp engine.

Completely redesigned to suit the tastes of discerning drivers, the new Smart Fortwo brings a standard of style and design to the subcompact market that’s head-and-shoulders above the rest.

The Smart ForTwo is smaller than the Mini Cooper and is more fuel- efficient than the Cooper, the Honda Fit, and the Toyota Yaris.

The Smart Fortwo has incorporated safety measures designed to save lives and cause fewer injuries. Though ultra-tiny, the Smart ForTwo provides space, luxury, and protective features found in high-end luxury cars.

The 2008 Smart Car ForTwo has been extended by a full seven inches and its total weight has been increased slightly to better meet U.S. market and compliance requirements.

The car’s extra width gives it a pronounced façade, making it seem much larger, and bigger stock tires accentuate its presence, re-inventing it as the hottest Smart Fortwo to date.

The wheelbase has been increased by two inches and the track width by half an inch.

The Smart's headlights are larger than previous models. New H7 projection headlights give the Smart Fortwo a futuristic expression, but the Smart smile remains.

Top-of-the-line Smart models come with only the best quality materials and accessories, offering comfort, elegance, and convenience. These include leather seats and trim as well as a leather-wrapped steering wheel.

So, please enjoy Smart’s innovative cars for the new millennium, feel free to ask questions, and drive Smart!
