Celebrating over 25 years of unconventionality

 

Guided by a forward-thinking spirit since 1998, smart has always embraced unconventionality and inspired to imagine an optimistic future. We combine premium quality, intelligent features and contemporary design so it can be adapted seamlessly to our lives. Together, let’s embrace the power of electricity, evolve with the needs of time, and continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible.

We have defied convention and redefined mobility for over a quarter of a century. From the beginning, we sought innovative solutions for the challenges of city life. As our all-electric smart #1 hits the road, we reflect on our non-conformism by highlighting original achievements, magic moments and the stories that shaped our attitude and vision. While the appearance of our cars may have changed, we still show how successful unconventional can be.

smart has always been a pioneer in urban mobility. In 2019, Mercedes-Benz and Zhejiang Geely Holding Group announced that the two global automotive groups have formed a joint venture for the smart brand, headquartered in Hangzhou Bay, Ningbo.

The new generation of pure electric smart vehicles is designed by the Mercedes-Benz global design team; Geely’s global R&D network is responsible for the engineering and development of the new models, with production plant in China.
