The SMART FORTWO ELECTRIC (2013-15) is a tiny all-electric city car with two seats and a hatchback-style shape. It is built for urban journeys, where its short length makes parking and tight streets far less stressful than in a conventional car. In the UK used-car market, it is a distinctive alternative to small petrol runabouts and larger electric cars. Mycarcheck.com checks have recorded 70 look-ups across 41 distinct VINs, with an average private-sale value of £5,500 and average mileage of 36,000 miles. Typical annual mileage was just 2,000, while cars averaged 1.5 previous keepers. These figures offer a snapshot of vehicles checked, rather than a guide to every example for sale. It suits commuters, city residents and second-car buyers who can charge at home and travel short distances. Its tiny footprint and cheerful styling set it apart from roomier electric hatchbacks such as the Renault Zoe, but two seats and limited versatility make it less suitable for families or frequent long trips.
