September 02, 2025, Leinfelden-Echterdingen, Germany. smart has made a big decision in favor of a small vehicle: The premium intelligent electric automotive brand will create a new city two-seater. The smart #2 will extend the product portfolio of the company with an ultra-compact vehicle in the A-segment. The all-electric two-seater model will combine mindful technology solutions while evolving core qualities of the original smart fortwo icon. The international premiere is planned for late 2026 with Europe as defined key region. With this consequent expansion of the product portfolio, the inventor of the original city car underlines its focus on diversified customer needs and makes clear, that smart can take many forms. Styled by the Mercedes-Benz Design team, the vehicle will feature new technology solutions for the segment that was established by the original smart fortwo 27 years ago. The smart #2 will be produced in China and is currently in the final design and development phase.
The confirmation of our ‘project: two’ and the upcoming launch of the smart #2 marks a milestone moment for the smart brand on a global scale. The smart #2 will shape a new era of individual urban automobility, especially in classic smart cities like Rome or Paris. The decision comes at the right time, as we benefit from the respective strengths of our main shareholders Mercedes-Benz and Geely, and experience a strong backing by new investors, along with the successful market launch of the smart #5. The new smart #2 will become a unique but authentic addition to our all-electric product portfolio of smart in Europe. Dirk Adelmann, CEO smart Europe
