I see you posted a life size pic of the car as well.

I hope they have their tow trucks gassed up. I bet every one of these will be run out of a charge and left at the side of the road.

My guess is that Smart just about gave these cars to Herta. Sales have been horrible, mileage isn’t that good and they cost about the same as a Honda Fit. Why would anyone ever buy one?

Haven’t seen a pic that big posted on FR since the late ‘90s.

Sheesh, that 2 MB image is bigger than the damned car. May I introduce you to the width=nn and height=nn parameters of the image tag?

BTW, that is the model I call the "coffin"

There is also an economy version, which you can rent for a little less, called Halfsmart.
