It had its world premiere last July, and deliveries began in Europe in November.The New smart "forfour".Collaboration with RenaultThis new compact car, reborn through collaboration with Renault, features excellent space efficiency, leveraging its RR layout despite its small body.

One feature that enhances its convenience is the optional "Lady Space" for the rear seats. This mechanism allows the rear seat cushion to be flipped 180 degrees and slid forward and down, providing an extra 12 cm of interior headroom compared to the standard position.

Using the Lady Space lowers the seat height by 12 cm from the ground, making it easier for short-legged small dogs or elderly dogs, such as Dachshunds, to jump into the car. The new smart's doors can also open nearly 90 degrees, further contributing to the ease of getting pets in and out.

Of course, for pets who are important family members, it's possible to attach a dog seat belt to the standard buckle as a precaution. Furthermore, using a dedicated carrier can enhance safety.

When using the Lady Space for dogs, the cushion surface for people is flipped over, offering the advantage of not having to worry about dirt.

The new smart forfour, with its compact body size and a minimum turning radius of approximately 4.3 meters thanks to its rear-wheel drive, offers excellent maneuverability even in tight parking lots and narrow streets. Additionally, the features designed to maximize cargo space provide a new proposal for making drives with your little family members more comfortable.
