Smart

In the United States, the average length of a vehicle trip is about 10 miles, just more than 12 to get to work. Smart USA vehicles are built for these short trips every day, and they will likely save you money in the process.

The Smart USA promise

Smart vehicles are highly-efficient gasoline-powered vehicles first introduced around the year 2000. Smart USA started legally importing the vehicles in 2008. Smart USA vehicles are considered the fourth most efficient vehicles for sale in the United States. Smart USA vehicles are efficient vehicles designed for the kind of driving most people do - around town and commuting.

What you can expect from a Smart car

Smart cars are practically unmistakable on the road. The small, ultra-compact design can fit lengthwise inside the wheelbase of most standard sedans. Smart cars are built to maximize every square inch of space. Most Smart cars have a transmission that can be switched from manual to automatic and vice-versa, for the combination of fun and efficiency that few other cars offer.

Expressing yourself in a Smart car

One of the best things about a Smart car is that it is designed specifically to help you express yourself. The body panels on a Smart car are easily replaceable and customizable, so your Smart car can be more about you and less about driving a brand. Even the safety cage of a Smart car is built into the design.

Smart cars and safety

Smart cars are some of the lightest vehicles on the road, yet they are exceptionally safe. A hemispherical Tridion steel safety shell creates a crumple zone to protect passengers. The rear-mounted engine is also less likely to be damaged in most collisions. Electronic Stability Programs and Anti-Lock Brakes help keep the car more stable. The US Federal Government rates most Smart cars between a 3 and 5 on a 1-to-5 scale of safety. The size of a Smart car is usually viewed as something that makes it less safe, but the steel safety cage helps make up for the difference.
