This is the Smartest car I've ever reviewed!

This is the all-new Smart #1!
When you think of Smart cars, chances are you remember tiny cars like the ForTwo or ForFour. However, the #1 is clearly much bigger than these, and now sits as a competitor to the likes of the Megane E-Tech and Kia Niro EV!
So let’s see how this all-new Smart stacks up. Starting with the design, it looks pretty impressive on the outside. There are full-length light bars at both the front and rear, and the back of the car is giving us serious Mercedes EQB vibes! Along the side, you’ll see a set of smart-looking 19-inch alloy wheels, as well as flush door handles to help with aerodynamics. It also comes with a two-tone paint job, which is a nice touch.
Step inside and the good looks continue! The #1 comes with a minimalist design, with nearly all controls running through the central infotainment screen. That’s a bit annoying when you come to control things while driving, but thankfully it comes with voice controls and the screen is pretty easy to use. The cabin is largely covered in soft-touch materials, and the build quality is pretty good. Unfortunately, though the digital driver's display is a bit small, if you pick the Premium trim, you’ll be treated to a heads-up display as well.
There are two trims to choose from - the entry-level Pro+ or the Premium. Both come with a single electric motor that can produce 272hp. Both cars come with a 62kWh battery pack, but while the Pro+ can run for a range of up to 260 miles, the Premium can run up to 273 miles.
The starting price of the Smart #1 is around £36,000. So is it worth it? You’ll need to stick with Mat to see for yourself!

Some add-ups from a Chinese customer: 1) This car is based on the SEA platform which shared by Smart #1, #3, Geek X, and Volvo EX30, etc. So it’s more Volvo than Mercedes mechanically. Mercedes is only responsible for the visual design. 2)In fact we also call it “number 1” in China because there’s no convenient way to pronounce hashtag in Chinese 😂

Hate cars that make you control climate through touch screens. It’s a deal breaker.
I still own a 2005 Forfour. Also have sliding and adjustable seats in the rear. It has the SB3 1.5l engine and the sixspeed AMT gearbox, so plenty of power for a car weighing about a ton. Can go 600 km on a full tank and refill it in 10 minutes. Ideal city car, with the wife getting 14km/l. Not too shabby.

All the Geely cars appear to get the design inside and out just right.
The number symbol '#' isn't even called hashtag its the number sign/hash in conjunction with a tag (a word) that makes it a HashTag. So "Number 1" is actually the right way to spell the model name if you were to ask me and not the marketing team :D

Nice car - me like it Geely is now conquering the EV world - either with joint ventures like this one or with their own brands like Volvo, Lotus. I didn't know that it shares the same platform from Geely with the Volvo EX30 which is a great hot compact new car too.

gear selector located on the steering column is very nice to have (reminds me about full size sedans from the US in the nineties that could house six people and so they moved out that stick from the center console to make room for a third passenger in the front row.) but what I don't appreciate is the fact that they confused drive with reverse and put it on there the wrong way round, lol.

@@nickm5978 that isn't true at all for both the modern incarnation as well as the traditional style (why would someone design something that's potentially dangerous in the first place?) while I don't know exactly about this car, it's obvious that it's a fully electronically operated selector and the computer wouldn't allow anything that could damage the car. and chances are very high that it's still double secured by the user being required to press and hold an additional "unlock" button like it's the case with every other automatic "gear" selector as well. now for the "traditional" variant: it wasn't possible to change anything like it's possible with a conventional wiper stalk, or something. you needed to reach around behind the level, pull it towards you (with built-in resistance) and only then it was possible to move it up or down to change the driving mode. so, simply hitting it (it's reclined much [!] further back than the stalks you're actually supposed to reach and operate from the steering wheel) won't do or cause anything.

(making you need the entire hand and not just the flick of a finger.) it's physically so far reclined that it's difficult (if not impossible) to actually reach from the steering wheel (it's not intended to be operated while also grabbing the steering wheel.) and lastly: even if you'd still forcefully try to do this, the computer wouldn't accept this input. I can precisely tell you from my own experience with one of my classic cars with no fancy computer control at all what happens when you forcefully select reverse while driving: the engine gets overwhelmed and stalls. that's about it. nothing more. the car then glides along (remember, you got a torque converter sitting between the engine and the gear box [instead of a clutch.] this means, that there's no stiff physical connection [okay, you've a locking function nowadays on modern cars, but let's not complete things too much] between the engine and the wheels. so, when the wheels cause the gearbox to spin against the crankshaft, then this is actually possible due to the fluid inside the torque converter.)

Choosing which generation of each car to use would be arbitrary. Unfortunately, I don't think they'd ever do this, and if they do it will be the latest models, therefore not including the Schirocco. Although it probably would include the "R" variant SUVs.

@@SatanDotExe even the newest version of each would be interesting. Surely they could get ones with all the same engine easily enough? I would offer up my TTS but I've just done the stage 1 so wouldn't be a direct comparison.

@@SatanDotExe I actually think the TTS beats them all due to being lighter and slightly more powerful but need some confirmation🤣
Best episode of all time imo
Lovely package in the end Matt

Don’t be wet, the old ForTwo Brabus would wipe the floor with this performance wise and was a masterstroke of design.
The fact there’s a Brabus version really took me back

It has never been stupid. It has always been a smart city car. I love it.
I am really interested to see this vs. the Volvo variant and of course the dual motor should be an absolute monster.
