The SMART FORTWO (2007-13) 2DR CABRIOLET 0.8 CDI 45 PASSION LUXURY AUTO5 is a two-seat city car with a fabric roof that opens the cabin to the outdoors. Its tiny footprint and automatic transmission make it especially suited to crowded streets, tight parking spaces and short urban journeys, rather than family duties or long-distance carrying. The 0.8-litre diesel is aimed at drivers seeking modest running costs, while Passion Luxury trim gives this small convertible a more appealing, better-equipped feel. Against conventional small hatchbacks such as the Fiat 500, the Fortwo stands out for its two-seat layout, compact size and open-air character; its compromise is limited passenger and luggage space.
