Mercedes Benz is branding the 2016 'Smart Fortwo' as the ultimate solution to city driving. Although it may be difficult to convince people to drive on busy downtown streets, the Smart Fortwo may change minds. Its compact size simplifies the intricacies of city driving by allowing for quick turning, parking in small spaces, and easy manoeuvring. The Smart Fortwo now has cruise control, hands-free calling, Bluetooth connectivity, power steering and power windows.
Although extremely compact, there is a backseat if needed, which leaves a bit of trunk space. For larger bulky items, the backseat can be folded down to open up the trunk.
An affordable and practical option, the Smart Fortwo may become a convenient city driving companion.
