How much will it go for in a few years?

[@MR-Santos-PR]

As a Mini enthusiast, I can say that Smart #1 looks more Mini than the new countryman. And I will take the #1 over the New Countryman

[@rivervalegroup]

Interesting take! The Smart #1 does have a unique charm that Mini enthusiasts might appreciate. What features of the #1 do you find most appealing compared to the new Countryman?

Does it Have Full one Pedal Driving

[@rivervalegroup]

Hello there 👋 Yes, the Smart #1 features full one-pedal driving capability, allowing for more efficient and convenient driving experiences in urban environments.

Funny thing. When I first saw this car I read it as ‘Smart, number 1’. The hashtag symbol being used so much, from the USA it seems, in the same way as ‘No.’ being the abbreviation for ‘number’. Surely that’s what was originally intended? Either way, having seen a couple now, pretty ugly thing and, even for an EV, overpriced. Will make more sense though once the depreciation sets in?

A lot of work has gone into the video, but the presentation style is quite strange in places. The plethora of stats, facts, and figures for the various trim and tech levels leaves the viewer somewhat bamboozled; and this is coming from someone who actually owns one..! For example, the AC charging information is largely irrelevant, with the vast majority of EV owners only having access to single-phase ( max of 7.4kW), so it doesn't matter what the car could do if you had three-phase or how long it theoretically takes to go from X to Y state of charge...

[@rivervalegroup]

Thank you for your honesty, we'll pass this feedback onto the team 👍

[@korberon]

That's only your opinion, I'm actually interested in those AC charging figures, As DC chargers are usually crowded and I have plenty Source London 22kw chargers within walking distance from my home if I need to replenish the battery faster than the home wallbox would allow me to and go for a quick nap mid day. Very few cara actually support 22kw so it's super useful for some of us depending on your individual requirements. Thank you for the review

Saw one this very morning. Wondered what the hell it was. Thought it was an awful looking thing.
