Used Smart 1
Launched in 2022, the Smart #1 marks a shift from the brand's classic two-seaters to a spacious electric SUV. Developed jointly with Mercedes-Benz and Geely, it competes with the Hyundai Kona Electric and Kia Niro EV, but adds a premium feel and rapid ride to the mix. Its powerful rear-wheel drive electric motor provides brisk acceleration and up to 273 miles of official range. The #1 delivers a quiet and comfortable drive, though the boot space is on the small side and some cabin functions are hidden behind the touchscreen. Still, with its generous standard equipment, roomy cabin for its class and reassuring five-star Euro NCAP safety rating, this Smart SUV is a strong choice for hassle-free family motoring.
Pros
Generous standard equipment- Quick and powerful engine for an electric
- High safety rating
Cons
Small boot for a family SUV- Some controls only on touchscreen
- Real-world range shorter than some rivals
