On 7th April 2022, Smart will reveal in an event that will take place in the brand’s trademark urban style at STATION-Berlin, the #1, an electric compact SUV.
With the renewal of its brand, product and business model, Smart has entered a new era of development, with the expansion of its product portfolio and global reach. The Smart #1 is the inaugural product of the new joint venture between Mercedes-Benz and Geely Automobile, reflecting the brand’s vision of exploring the best solutions for future urban mobility and co-creating powerful brand experiences.
The combination of Mercedes-Benz design and Smart engineering creates a compelling proposition. A pure and elegant exterior design provides a perfect balance of aesthetics and aerodynamics underpinned by depth of engineering and premium quality. The Smart #1 has recently completed extensive pre-production testing in northern China, with its battery and technology systems being put to the ultimate test in -40°C temperatures.
The Smart Europe team is also supporting testing and local homologation through the original Smart research and development centre in Renningen, Germany. The team, led by Tilo Schweers (Vice President of R&D), are putting the Smart #1 through its final testing whilst also carefully preparing the showcars for the Berlin reveal event.
