Futuristic 2025 Smart Roadster Study Makes A Convincing Case For A Revival

[brd 35]

Unfortunately this is an independent design concept for a new smart roadster and is not endorsed in any way by smart. Instead of a smart roadster, Daimler & Geely are building a smart 5 seater SUV about the size of a mini Countryman. I know which of the two I prefer and it doesn't carry five people.

There's no money in this sort of car these days so no-one in charge of smart is likely going to try this again.

That’s one of the reasons why Daimler prematurely axed the roadster in 2005/6 in the midst of prepping a mid generation refresh version. Unfortunate for us as they had also been working on a Chrysler roadster prototype for the North American market.

 

The brains currently running smart think money is to be made selling relatively small electric SUV’s. Unfortunately they may be right.

Looks like a student project.
