The SMERA prototype was pre-viewed at Geneva and Paris Motor Show in 2008. Since September 2009, you can also discover our SMERA in the Lumeneo Show Room in Paris. Two SMERA are presented and our team answers our visitors questions.

Today, LUMENEO presents the serial model of the SMERA.

The SMERA is now ready to commute into the urban and out-of-town traffic. Originally designed to shift and park with ease, the SMERA has a dreaming size: 86 cm width and 2,50 m length.
Do not suffer traffic jam or bad weather, park easily and safely drive.

The SMERA opens a new way of mobility. LUMENEO is currently working on the M1 European homologation for the SMERA. This car homologation is the first one for such innovative vehicle, final certificate will allow to drive on all European roads.

After several exhibitions where the SMERA has been presented, we have collected visitors' suggestions. This final version offers to the driver and his passenger more inside roominess.

For this first year of production, Lumeneo plans a progressive start. In 2011, rhythm will increase to match the French and European demands.

Entirely electric, a car driving licence is compulsory to drive the SMERA.

The alliance of aestheticism ...

A VERY URBAN LINE

Purity and delicacy of lines have guided the hand of the SMERA designers. With its only 86 cm of width and 2.50 m of length, the SMERA has an exclusive size to slip into the traffic and park without constraint. Its very fluid lines are emphasized by its automatic tilt in curves.

Getting onboard is easy, thanks to two large lateral doors. It allows getting in by the right or the left side, up to the place of parking. The SMERA has an aluminium protective 3D frame and a closed body. Seat belts and crash box complete the passive safety.

Five colours are available, but the choice of a specific colour is always possible.
