When this car comes to the US I hope it still gets 50+ mpg and doesn’t cost more than $14,000. Could anyone from Europe who owns this car let me know if a 6′2″ tall driver can fit comfortably in both front seats? I sat in a Smart ForTwo and the driver side was fine but there wasn’t enough legroom on the passenger side. Thanks.

honda really needs to make a micro car.

6′2 driver and passenger will fit with ease.

I read in Automobile that all they have to do is revise the front and rear bumpers to meet U.S. safety standards.

God I hate toyotas design team, every new eco car they have made looks the exact same. Those headlights they keep putting on all their cars are horrid.

his toothbrush has 68hp..wonder whether tat’s gonna rip his teeth off..lolz

68bhp is excellent, my car only has 32 (!) but i guess this compact car weighs a lot due to modern safety features so performance is compromised.

Hey Pase thanks for the comment about your height and experience/opinion of this car. A fellow 1.87 meter tall consumer here interested in the feel of this car

did anyone else notice that the steering wheel is somewhat obsructed by the dash…??? or was it just the angle of the cam???

i spent sometime w/one of these (in tokyo) in
2008. im 6.2″, 200lbs, slim build, my wife is 5′8″, 140lbs, so she says & average build.

we had no trouble fitting in this car at all but, i
definitely say it is a three seater while im driving

theres no way two six footers could sit on the
same side of the car and if two are in front, i
hope the person in back is not well liked

under the hatch is crazy tiny too but, w/the
seats down & two people most of the time –
no problem

had the smart fortwo in canada b4 the
gas engine debuted in the u.s. tranny
& busy diesel were dreadful. gas engine is
smoother but, iq is still more refined inside
& under hood

but, price would kill it. base 4dr
yaris & base smart fortwo are almost
exactly the same (CDN$)

iq & fortwo are toys for people w/disposable
cash or singles/childless couples that choose
style over practicality (try safely/legally bringing
home dimensional lumber from home depot!)

yaris & others? no prob

smart v. iq? ok so, europe and asia have been
making cars this size (& much smaller) for decades

for the north american market it just seems
like the smart was the innovator (timing is
everything)

@Scorponok2009 20 seconds to fold down seats.. and you have a lot of space in the back..not that hard..
Scorponok2009 wrote on March 1, 2010 at 12:32 pm
I have a smart fortwo, and I’m glad there’s no backseat in it. Nothing to fold down to put stuff in the back!
Scorponok2009 wrote on March 1, 2010 at 12:32 pm
Hey, If I wanted to fold down the passenger’s seat, it wouldn’t take 20 seconds. It would take 3.
