btw, anyone looking for more power and torque - i found out the thorley exhaust is one of the best. it increases horsepower by 6 and torque by 21, which is a HUGE improvement for a car this small. it will also improve fuel economy. downside is the exhaust is around $395 :)
I have 2 smarts. One is a 09 and the other is a 14 123k miles on the 09 . Never any major issues the 14 36k miles no issues other than power window on passenger side replaced . Warranty coverage.
You should never do what that driver done close to start of video. On passing a van on the inside lane and he on outside lane when he was in breach of van he indicated to pull into the middle lane directly beside van now for whatever reason the van driver decided to do same an accident waiting to happen you should be well behind or visible in front before you ever do that
