smart’s all-new model lineup is said to be introduced to the world in mid-July 2014, which is about a month’s time away. The new fortwo would be the third-generation model since it was first conceived, while the forfour didn’t get a second generation model.
The new smart lineup will once again be built on a shared platform, with the donor this time being the rear-engined Renault Twingo. The forfour will also be rear engined this time, unlike the first-generation forfour which used a front-engined platform.
We have a glimpse into the new forfour’s interior too. The steering wheel is similar in design to new Mercedes-Benz steering wheel designs like the one in the new C-Class, but has a funkier design for the steering-mounted buttons. There’s also a full-colour digital instrument panel seen.
Mercedes-Benz Malaysia is still keeping an open mind about the reintroduction of the smart brand in Malaysia for now, which is why some Mercedes-Benz dealerships still have ‘legacy’ Smart signage up.

RWD you say? Hm… smart AMG fortwo45 and forfour45 perhaps?
I was thinking more Abarth 1000 tc, withg the engine lid permanently open ala Bugatti Veyron.
Please AMG.
old smart car reliable or not? is it high maintenance?
Are you talking about the fortwo or the forfour? The fortwo is vastly overpriced as a second hand car…
The forfour is more or less a Mitsubishi Colt in a colorful dress.
