The Smart ForTwo is about to get a whole lot bigger... or is it?
Cars as we know them have been increasing in size for years, with popular midsize sedans now reaching sizes of large cars from 20 or more years ago. But what if a car that was based entirely around being small got super-sized too?
The creative minds at Smart pose a hypothetical situation leading up to the launch of the all new ForTwo, and spoiler alert: it’s hilarious! The ForTwo is the smallest new car you can buy right now, and if this video is to be believed (which it isn’t), it’s about to get a whole lot larger.
Smart has been putting out witty, self-aware, and chuckle-worthy videos for quite some time now. This latest installment is their biggest effort yet, pun intended. These clever ads aim to reinforce Smart’s image as a fun-loving brand that is not shy of the miniscule size of its products.
The all-new Smart ForTwo is set to be released this Wednesday at a press event in Berlin, with the official sales launch occurring at the Paris Motor Show at the beginning of October.
The current ForTwo is getting a bit long in the tooth, having been in production since 2007, so this week’s release aims to keep the brand and its products fresh in consumers’ minds.
If the new model is anywhere near as fun as the videos that Smart puts out, the ForTwo should be a hoot to drive, not to mention very affordable.
The ForTwo currently starts at $13,270 (excluding destination charges), and can be leased for as low as $99 per month. Expect the all-new ForTwo to have similar pricing, and to be just as quirky as ever.
