| Contrà´le technique |
The diminutive 2008 Smart Fortwo, the smallest mass-market car sold in the United States, is making its debut in the States for 2008, although it follows a design that’s a decade old.
All U.S. Fortwo models are powered by a 70-horsepower, 1.0-liter Mitsubishi-supplied three-cylinder engine, with a five-speed automated manual transmission. Like many sportier cars with automatic transmission, it can be shifted with handy paddle shifters alongside the steering wheel or just left in Drive.
