If smart gets its way, pickup trucks will no longer be for farmers and campers in the near future. Enter the smart for-us pickup concept, presented at the 2012 Detroit Auto Show.

Aimed at the active urbanite with a twist, the for-us pickup is designed with a rear bed capable of carrying and recharging a pair of e-bikes.

The for-us is propelled by a 55 kW magneto-electric motor. It is wider and longer than the production fortwo and retains the roomy-for-two cabin.
