Mercedes has unveiled its all-new 2016 Fortwo and ForFour city cars at an event in Berlin. Under the hood, power is supplied by state-of-the-art three-cylinder engines rated at 45 kW/60 hp, 52 kW/71 hp and 66 kW/90 hp, mated with a five-speed manual transmission or the twinamic automatic dual clutch transmission.
“Despite increased safety requirements, we have managed to retain the smart fortwo’s unique length of just 2.69 metres,” adds Markus Riedel, head of development at smart. “It shares its architecture with the new forfour.”
At the interior the car sports a much more contemporary and playful layout, navigation, and an eight-speaker JBL sound system. U.S. pricing on the 2016 Smart Fortwo has not been released.
