So when is the USA going to get its crack at owning the Smart Car? Well next year is the projected date for Smart Car sales to start in the United States. Who will be first in line to get their hands on one of these little cars?

The Smart Car is a division of the Mercedes Car Group, they invented the fortwo cars for the economically minded people around the world. The Smart Car will get about 40 MPG under normal driving conditions which is pretty good when gas is $3.40 a gallon. Smart Cars are the smallest cars I have ever seen they measure only 8.8 feet long by 5.1 feet tall and 5.1 feet wide. The Smart Car isn't a fast car by any means with a top speed of only 90 MPH don't expect to win any races.

The Smart Car is not only economic its cheap, you can get one of three models all priced under $20,000. The basic model is called the smart fortwo pure and it starts out under $12,000. The middle model is call the smart fortwo passion coupe and will be under $14,000. The final model is the smart fortwo passion cabrio and will be under $17,000.

The Smart Car is a small economy car but it does have a surprising amount of space for storage in the trunk. You can actually fit up to 8 cubic feet worth of stuff in the back end of the Smart Car and if you fill it to the roof line you can increase that to 12 cubic feet, which should fit most people's life styles just fine. It is only a two seater so it won't work for large families.
