Get Smart

Caught out during final testing near the Hambach factory was the Smart ForTwo Cabriolet. Even though it’s still camouflaged with thin disguising, the proportions and layout of the car appears little changed. While the wheelbase remains similar, the nose has been lengthened to make room for larger crumple zones. There are also fresh headlamps and a new grille. The upright door handles have been swapped for conventional items, while the mirrors are new as well. At the rear, buyers can expect revised lights and a reprofiled bumper line. The ForTwo will make its debut some time in 2007.
