Smart ED on 5th Gear !!!!

Postby ChrisB » Mon Mar 03, 2008 8:47 pm

Anyone else see the Smart ED on 5th gear this evening 3/3/08

I WANT ONE 8)

Looks like they have over limited the controller a tadge and hence it failed to beat the ICE equivilant to 30 mph :cry: which was a shame as it should have run rings round it really considering its got more bhp than the ICE.

Yes, we saw it and agree with all your comments Chris.
Pity only 100 are arriving in the UK. Let's hope they are all snapped up quickly and more follow.
Still wish it was a 4 seater.

Thanks for the link

Other than range the petrol Smart beat the ED hands down HOWEVER it was the new Smart versus the ED being the older modle which they very much glossed over
