I see some of the lack of interest coming from the dealer, but at the same time there seemed (seems) to be somewhat disinterest coming from corporate smart. Mostly this seems to have occurred since the integration of sUSA and MBCA. A common perception is that the smart is the bastard step child of MB. With that attitude, what else can be expected? I get the impression that smart is being sold in the U.S. with the sole intention of keeping the CAFE numbers down, rather than selling as a true asset. Now, with the change in management at the top of sUSA I'm being optimistic that this may change. Recently I have seen much more advertising for smart on TV. Granted, not on the major networks, but at least on major cable networks like TNT and during prime time. So, I'm going to continue and be optimistic about the future of smart, and hope that things change in perception. Since the introduction of Car2Go in Denver, I'm hoping that may change the local perception at least!
