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.
