smart fortwo "edition limited three" Next week at the Geneva Motor Show Daimler will present a new special model of the famous smart - “edition limited three”.

The “edition limited three” gets a new lemon-green paintwork and a fresh interior design with spring-like colors and materials.

This special edition smart rides on 15-inch wheels in a sporty six-spoke design. Front tires measure 175/55 and the rear ones 195/50.

The special series uses micro hybrid technology with an intelligent automatic start/stop technology. The control electronics shut down the 52kW /71 hp engine as soon as the driver brakes and the vehicle’s speed falls below 8 km/h - for example when approaching traffic lights. Combined fuel consumption is just 4.4 liter per 100 km (53.4 mpg) on the coupe and 4.5 liters per 100 km (52.2 mpg) on the cabrio.

The smart fortwo “edition limited three” will be produced as a limited series. Coupe prices start at 15,470 euros and cabrio prices at 18,510 euros.
