2010 Smart Fortwo
The Fortwo's cute frame and nimble handling
make it a very tempting choice for city driving, but its sluggish power is
impractical for the highway.
One of the best cars for city living, and
one of the worst purchases you could make for a suburban commute, the 2009
Smart Fortwo continues to inspire industry buzz for its fun styling,
outstanding gas mileage, and surprising comfort given its small stature. And
considering the sagging economy and fear over recent surging gas prices, it's no
wonder the waiting list to buy a Fortwo has been as lengthy as it is. Current
Smart car owners surveyed admit that the car's appeal lay along economical
lines -- according to a recent Washington Post feature, there are numerous SUV
drivers who still prefer their larger car for highway driving, but they
purchased a Smart to save money wheeling around town.
