Smart is nearing a decision on whether to greenlight the production of a new Fortwo successor, known as the 2, but it must first ensure the model can be profitable. The company is working on a new platform called the Electric Compact Architecture (ECA) and is seeking partners to share the costs. I believe finding the right partners will be crucial for the projects success.

Smart has begun developing a new electric two-seater called the 2, based on the Electric Compact Architecture (ECA) platform. The project aims to create a vehicle that combines the dimensions and maneuverability of the old Fortwo with an electric drive and state-of-the-art connectivity. However, the company still needs to find partners to make the business case feasible.

Following the end of production of the electric Fortwo, Smart is working on a successor using a new dedicated platform. The new model, internally known as ‘Project 2’ and likely to be called the 2, will need to achieve a four- or five-star Euro NCAP crash test rating and include advanced ADAS functionalities. I think the emphasis on safety and technology will be key to its appeal.

Smart’s CEO, Dirk Adelmann, confirmed that the company is looking for partners to share the costs of developing the new Fortwo successor. The vehicle will measure between 2.7 and 2.8 meters in length, be electric, and have a decent range. It must also comply with the latest European ADAS standards.

The Smart Fortwo ceased production on March 28, but the company is ready to revive it with a new platform and potential partners. The new fourth-generation Fortwo will use the Electric Compact Architecture and aim for high safety standards and advanced connectivity features. I believe this could be a great move to keep the Fortwo relevant in the market.

Smart’s design chief, Kai Sieber, indicated that the company is keen to restore a tiny two-seater to its lineup, possibly as a fourth-generation ForTwo. However, this would require a new compact platform, as the existing platforms used for the 1, 3, and 5 models are not suitable.
