2008 smart fortwo coupé passion Review
Last fall, when I attended the media launch of the new smart in San Francisco, I clearly enjoyed driving the car. My first impressions turned out to be very positive. However, a full road test over an entire week is necessary to get the complete picture. So, in February, I spent 7 days behind the wheel of a smart fortwo coupé passion, driving in a variety of road and weather conditions: rain, sunshine, heat, cold, 90-kph winds, snow, hail... you know, everything Quebec has to offer. Well, the new smart once again proved to be a great city car. It has some surprisingly good attributes (liveability and handling, among others), but also a couple of small weaknesses, like gear shifts in auto mode. Oh, and there's one major flaw: access to the washer fluid tank.
