smart fortwo electric drive by jeremy scott
german vehicle division SMART has colllaborated with fashion designer jeremy scott to conceive a limited edition electrified
'fortwo'. equipped with wings that illuminate like igniting rockets to form avant-garde rear taillights, the feature becomes
the central design element of the car body, accentuating its futuristic approach to transportation.
based on the current production version of the 'smart fortwo electric drive', it has the capabilities of accelerating from 0-60 km/h
(37 mph) in 4.8 seconds, achieving a top speed of 125km/h (78 mph). its 17.6 kWh lithium-ion battery enables the urban
two-seater to travel approximately 145 kilometres in city traffic without producing any local emissions. painted in bright white,
chrome accents in the front headlights and grille, mirror caps, and tridion cell contrast to appear like a 'glistening jewel'.
the interior is outfitted in fine white nappa leather for the instrument panel, seats and door trim while the centre panels in
the doors boast extravagant diamond stitching as a further sign of elegance and freedom.
'for me, wings mean freedom, a sense of weightlessness. because of this, I definitely wanted to have them for the 'smart electric
drive' in order to convey the way it frees the environment of noxious emissions and symbolises the new lightness of mobility',
explains jeremy scott, who, in addition to his fashion collections, also creates unique costumes for pop stars such as lady gaga,
madonna, katy perry and rihanna.

Honestly this is a little too fruity for me
shades of Harley Earl
Jeremy is the master of understatement. To show his support for the people of the Middle East he named his latest fashion collection Arab Spring 2013 – with this bold gesture and his Smart car design he has positioned himself beyond parody.
Lipstick on a pig. Decorated shed, shame on you German design – function follows gratuitous form!!!!……should I go on?
The interior is cool! Love the bucket seats and harness.
Hysterical.
This isn’t a joke???
Certainly is ridiculous if it isn’t. I’ve never heard of Jeremy Earl but I thought this was a parody
of gay fashion designers and their ‘signature’ pieces. Too much.
Totally excelent
This is a limited edition, but I have to wonder if there is a huge red glowing blind spots? Curious what other versions are on the way. Can the SMART car be “smarter”? Can it have more storage space and still be “SMART”? I’m not trying to be a smart ass, but I could help design it, seriously…
Fruity, it’s flaming.
Looks silly….
The interior looks really cool! Not the silly wrings…
