The Concept #2 blends the original Fortwo shape with the brand&#8217;s modern design cues, and will spawn a production version in Paris in October.<\/p>\n<p>Since its renaissance under the Geely umbrella, which took a 50% stake in 2019, Smart has deviated from its original DNA as a super-compact city car. The #1, #3, and #5 are all electric SUVs, the latter measuring nearly twice as long as the original Fortwo (or City-Coup\u00e9, as it was originally called) from 1998. But the brand hasn&#8217;t forgotten its roots, and is bringing back the tiny two-seater later this year.<\/p>\n<h4>Fortwo successor on all-new architecture<\/h4>\n<p>To warm us up for the official launch of the model at the Paris Motor Show in October, Smart has unveiled the Concept #2 at Auto China 2026 in Beijing. It has been designed by the Mercedes-Benz Global Design Team, which also has a design center in Shanghai, and is based on the all-new, proprietary Electric Compact Architecture (ECA).<\/p>\n<p>In terms of design, the Smart Concept #2 strongly references the original model from nearly 30 years ago while adding a more premium look. The matte white bodywork is accentuated with gold elements and fine details like leather straps in the front fascia &#8211; although we wouldn&#8217;t count on those making it to production.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_185174\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-185174\" style=\"width: 2560px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-185174 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/02-Smart-Concepthashtag2-Beauty-Front-Hires-D65534-scaled.jpg?resize=640%2C427&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/02-Smart-Concepthashtag2-Beauty-Front-Hires-D65534-scaled.jpg?w=2560&amp;ssl=1 2560w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/02-Smart-Concepthashtag2-Beauty-Front-Hires-D65534-scaled.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/02-Smart-Concepthashtag2-Beauty-Front-Hires-D65534-scaled.jpg?w=1920&amp;ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-185174\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Smart Concept #2 blends the shape of the original Fortwo with modern and more premium elements \/ Smart<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4>Tiny size, but a more usable electric range<\/h4>\n<p>Elements of the modern Smart era are visible, too, such as the triangular headlamps, similar to those on the #1 and #3 models. With a length of 2,792 mm, the Smart Concept #2 stays close to the original&#8217;s size, with a tight 6,95-meter turning circle to guarantee easy maneuvering in tight city spaces.<\/p>\n<p>But the Smart #2 promises to be much more usable than its predecessor, the EQ Fortwo, which offered only 145 km of range. The ECA platform offers enough space to fit a battery with a WLTP range of nearly 300 km, while fast charging from 10 to 80% takes under 20 minutes. V2L functionality will also allow charging external accessories from the high-voltage battery.<\/p>\n<h4>Global debut in Paris<\/h4>\n<p>For more details, including the model&#8217;s interior, we&#8217;ll have to wait until the fall, as the production model of the smart #2, the new fortwo, is set to make its world premiere at the Paris Motor Show in October 2026.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-185173 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/08-Smart-Concepthashtag2-Detail-Rearlight-Hires-scaled.jpg?resize=640%2C768&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/08-Smart-Concepthashtag2-Detail-Rearlight-Hires-scaled.jpg?w=2132&amp;ssl=1 2132w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/08-Smart-Concepthashtag2-Detail-Rearlight-Hires-scaled.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/newmobility.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/08-Smart-Concepthashtag2-Detail-Rearlight-Hires-scaled.jpg?w=1920&amp;ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After first announcing the #2 for 2026 and even showing photos of camouflaged prototypes, Smart has now unveiled the concept version of its Fortwo successor.
