I've just got the cabriolet. It's great fun, especially with the roof down, now we have good weather! I really like the semi automatic gears, and it's soooo cheap on fuel! Only £30 tax too!
I believe that’s around when the new shape came into proposition, so likely they were making the lasts of the older shape & beginning production of the newer shape in one go.
Does anyone know if you are still able to remove the complete engine with subframe on the 453 like it was possible on the 451? This feature was really nice, as you could just lower the engine with a jack and some screws and service it at home.. A shame they do no build the 453 with a CDI engine.. :(
I can't answer your question but I just bought a 2008 Fortwo Passion 451. It's Great to know my car has such a neat feature considering everything is so hard to get to.
I wish they had electric ones being assembled I have never been around a gas one I have a 2015 smart fortwo 451 electric and just got a 2019 smart fortwo 453 electric passion still fun to watch them made I assume in France as the parts are sent from Germany for assembly by Renault in France.
Thank you for all those people for building my smart 4 two brabus, i am in love with my boy even after 3 months of meeting, cheers guys only bad part i cannot change my music from the steering wheel, i need to use the screen for that
I own a Smart 2011. Its a bit worn own. It pays for itself even though its expensive to buy. I own a gas and fills up to below CAD$40 @ 33L. I drive it with avg mileage of 525Km. I happen to drive it with only 1L left on it! I wish I have a house so I can own a Smart EV to commute to work.
never. The petrol version is long out of production (since 2019 I think), the EQ I think was never released abroad and the new #1 (which isn't a Smart anymore) isn't planned for sales in america or canada.
They are nice cars and fun to drive but if you live in the United States the parts are very expensive and service is also expensive so if you can't work on cars you won't like that part.. I live in Florida and the Top has a vinyl coating and the sun baked it until it peeled off !! you can't have another vinyl film put back on they have to remove the entire top and it's $1,000.00 for the part and installation !!! I would never buy another one.
We want the Mercedes Smart company that issued us in Egypt this beautiful old car Smart.. Fortow 2015.. design is much better than the new Altsam We want to spread and purchased in Egypt It's a wonderful shape and design I like very much economical car

Such a modern and city focused design. Then a combustion engine starts up and suddenly you realise it's not modern at all. It's 19th Century same old, same old and in a compact package. I drove a smart for 7 years and loved it but seriously. Go full electric across the whole range.
You are just another naive person brainwashed to think that "electric=clean". Mining and processing of lithium creates very negative environmental impact. The electricity production is not free or environmental impact either. Disposal of used, highly toxic lithium batteries is another environmental problem. Electric cars do not solve the problems with ICE-powered cars, just create different ones. If you live in US look at the size of the cars on the road, the size of the engines in those cars and the number of people in those cars. In theory the amount of car-generated pollution could be cut nearly in half just by reducing the size of the engines and switching to smaller, lighter vehicles. There is no no real need for a 3-ton truck or SUV with 3-5L engine to carry one person to and from work. But all that weight requires energy to move it. Whether that energy is generated in clean nuclear power station then stored in on-board lithium battery or generated from gasoline by ICE is irrelevant. It is wasted energy no matter what. But tell Americans they should use less of anything and they flip and pull their guns to protect their freedom to waste as much of resources as they please.
Next time put in a telescoping steering wheel, the seat positions make that thing awkward if you go backwards at all. Otherwise I live with the design and like the rest of it
It does not seem to have solution for the smart cars I have been typing problems with heater blowing cold air on smart coupe city but I get different things ,I am sorry to say it is not organised
Could be any number of things. air in the cooling system, low on coolant, stuck thermostat, heater control linkage. Impossible to solve remotely needs hands on approach to solve and this is true of any car not just the Smart. Check coolant level first.
Brendan Stewart Same car as the one in front, its just got the plastic front end moved down so they can fill up stuff with the windscreen fluid, and stuff like that.
Make it full electric, with 200 miles range, under $7000, with 7 years of unlimited, bumper to bumper warranty, zero deductible, and I MIGHT buy one. Till then, "No Deal".
Why is the truck driver loading every 3rd or 4th car facing back? In fact, when the video showed him putting them on his trailer, he was backing up onto the ramp.
They had sooooo much time to make sure this model was right yet it only has a 4 star NCAP rating and that puts most buyers off straight away no matter how good the car is... It put me off, I bought a VW Up!
+Peter Veneziano brokeswagon?! who are they!? VW up won European Car Of The Year and reviews are great and sales strong whereas Smart has got mixed reviews and has not won any awards and are very unpopular and expensive ... no good making a great car if they do not sell!
+edward mercer The design concept for the company's automobiles began at Mercedes in the early 1970s and in the late 1980s, associated with Swatch. After a brief period of backing by Volkswagen, the first model was launched by Daimler-Benz in October 1998. Several variants on the original design have been introduced, with the original two-seater called the Fortwo, now in its third generation and available as an electric version.The brand name smart derives from its early cooperative studies with Swatch and Mercedes: Swatch Mercedes ART.[6] In its corporate branding, the company uses a lowercase logotype (i.e., smart) and a logo incorporating the letter "c" for "compact" and an arrow for "forward thinking".DaimlerChrysler confirmed that smart would be officially launched in the United States in the first quarter of 2008. The cars were offered through a dealership holding company Penske Automotive Group, which created a new U.S. dealership network for the brand under the name smart USA

Interesting to see them building 451's and 453's on the same line.
I love watching someone's new car being assembled. knowing how happy they are gonna be with it too :) fantastic stuff !!
this is the cutest car production I have ever seen
Looking forward great 👍 make car 🚘 like electric ⚡️👍👍👍👍🇦🇺
Hope I get one of these babies one day!!!!!!!!!! I am a fan of Smart fortwo in Houston, TX.
Just the real one i love it
I think this is way cool. I am glad they are using four bolts instead of the previous three. Perhaps this would open it up to more rim options?
الهم صلى على محمد واله محمد وصحبته اجمعين🥰🥰🥰
I really think that is cool. I like my 2008 Smart Fortwo Pure. I think this newer one is even cooler.
Can I purchase it in India ?
or you people can arrange to deliver it here..?
🎶Thanks for sharing.........
🎶The car so cute( too many robots for higher!!.....
$good luck all guys! $$$$.
🗣️🗣️🗣️yeh da car is adorable 🥰🥰🥺🥺
I love my 2014 smart for two, oh I can’t explain to you how much I just love this car
They are great wee cars. The Forfour is even better.
after watching this video makes me want to buy this even more..I will buy it this year
I bought one last week, love it.
cool that's great..... how do you like it... I really like old better, but still buying it
Drives great and all of the bells and whistles. I had one of the 04 plate ones.
thanks for replying can't wait to get one..
I have one of those! Awesome car, you'll love it!
Such a beautiful car 🥲!I want this car!!!!!!
Wow. That's really cool. Very interesting to see a car being put together. I can't wait to get one.
I might buy a 2016 Passion with 13,750 miles tomorrow, pretty cool seeing this video first of how it's made.
Perfect city car , love em 👍
I've just got the cabriolet. It's great fun, especially with the roof down, now we have good weather! I really like the semi automatic gears, and it's soooo cheap on fuel! Only £30 tax too!
new level of cuteness.
A piece of metal isn't cute
@Ghost no. No its not.
Wat mooi zoon smart forto 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Nice Car, and very cool drive
As long as it takes you from one place to another safely at a reasonably low cost, it has its appeal.
Super smart
How come, they assemble the new and previous models?
I believe that’s around when the new shape came into proposition, so likely they were making the lasts of the older shape & beginning production of the newer shape in one go.
My previous car was toyota aygo. Perfect vehicle for a town
Excellent video.

nice with drop top going to get one
I have one and I love it :-)
Is it expensive to maintain?
Interesting video for any smart fan. Wonder how long it takes to build the car from start to finish? Very good.
it's a good car for big city and high way
Very nice! I wish I could have one :)

These cars are cool. I own one and I get the looks. Not very practical for long drives. But perfect around the city or town.

Best Winter car ever made. When are they bringing them back to Canada?
never. The petrol version is long out of production (since 2019 I think), the EQ I think was never released abroad and the new #1 (which isn't a Smart anymore) isn't planned for sales in america or canada.

i leave in greece and faced the same situation like you, the vinyl on my top roof peeld off and i had to paind it black for 150 euros
Loved it
Haha just realised it got a better ncap rating than many other larger cars like the C1
+D McNamara I think they made the Smart Car heavier so it's harder for people to tip over. That was a common problem for the previous model
+D McNamara No, not really, but i've seen it happen once.
We want the Mercedes Smart company that issued us in Egypt this beautiful old car Smart.. Fortow 2015.. design is much better than the new Altsam We want to spread and purchased in Egypt It's a wonderful shape and design I like very much economical car

I LIVE IN WEST PALM BEACH - FLORIDA- I HAVE ONE ""2013 SMART FORTWO PURE"", - I LOVE MY CAR - IN THE FUTURE I WANT TO BUY ONE MORE NEW, MAYBE 2015.
453 ForTwo never look as cool as the 451 still don't know why Mercedes used Renault Twingo for the Fortwo and Forfour.
Amazing!
Super !
👍👍
So cool
smart should really be getting 50+ mpg.
I love smart fortwo but not found in Thailand..............
this assembly line is really slow. no wonder Smart dealers have only 1 car here in Indiana..
It's slow because it's a high quality car
Nice
There whas an old Smart behind the new. I wonder why?
I can see on the orange one they don’t paint the underbody so well. Planned rust in a few years?
don't like the car but it is a very impressive factory
it’s better than a lamborghini trash car
Next time put in a telescoping steering wheel, the seat positions make that thing awkward if you go backwards at all. Otherwise I live with the design and like the rest of it
How much is smart fortwo?do you ship in the philippines?
It does not seem to have solution for the smart cars I have been typing problems with heater blowing cold air on smart coupe city but I get different things ,I am sorry to say it is not organised

What car is that behind the moving car at 9:04 ?
Brendan Stewart Same car as the one in front, its just got the plastic front end moved down so they can fill up stuff with the windscreen fluid, and stuff like that.
Why can I not get one of those? :)
unfortunately we do not get the diesel powered ones
i would never drive diesel cars
because they are loud
and waste a lot of fuel
@@SunsetfearOFFICIAL there way more efficient than a gas engine.
Make it full electric, with 200 miles range, under $7000, with 7 years of unlimited, bumper to bumper warranty, zero deductible, and I MIGHT buy one.
Till then, "No Deal".
NO DEAL.
nice!
Grande macchina
my smart 2009 have a loud noise that come and go. Help please.
It's the sound of the value of your car crashing through the floor.
Wilfredo Ortiz 2018
Now when will they make 3/8 ton Smart pickups?
not like the old days when assembly line workers actually had to work!
Why is the truck driver loading every 3rd or 4th car facing back? In fact, when the video showed him putting them on his trailer, he was backing up onto the ramp.
Buenos dias me pueden informar cuantos cargadores lleba el motor y si me pueden emviar fotos de los mismos gracias
Pourquoi est ce qu'on voit que des SMART blanches, alors que pour en trouver une, y en a jamais sur le marché ?
and this is what happens when you show up late for work at a Mercedes plant you have to assemble smart fortwo cars as your punishment. lol
You do realize people dp it for the income right:
6:20 apple logo
Diogo Lopes where?
abel alvarez 6:35 look at the door
Pio. 49 haha i see it
so cute
que pena aqui no Brasil smart chega com preço muito alto💰😬
My Dream car, Launching India when, & Price?
No word, how can customer is master?
Auto da citta'
Snap on cars, not like the old days when they built real cars like the 54 Chevy an so on.
Too bad now électrique only in the US. I don't think SMART will succeed, will pull out of the market.
R possible to launch in India????
hmm, the newer models look bigger than the older ones. Or is it just me?
I like the models with Hayabusa engines but those are not stock.
Great video. Gift one car to me please on my Happy Birthday :) I will happy so much
What is the price of the vehicle
Whishe the krauts exported these to a larger market... my 2019 will not last forever

Great car, they will probably screw it up. Ya know how restless spoiled engineers are.
How tall people can such a car fit?
I'm almost 2 meters tall and i can fit perfectly fine (in the 2007 version)
It's taller than a normal sedan.
Bolei Wang .... and you sit higher than in a normal car, so the view on traffic is better
Webdigo my husband is 6' 3" and he does fine 👍
How much bro (us dollar)
I want to import to Bangladesh. (wholesale market price) how much per pitch?
my dreams car :'(
People are going to w bush
Where do smart cars ???
