New Smart Car

Purchased a new 2016 Smart Car yesterday. It is the Passion Coupe.. I have been towing a 2009 Passion since I purchased it new. Have traveled well over 50,000 miles including Alaska with it trailing behind. Great tow car. I test drove the new Smart and fell in love immediately.. The new suspension and horsepower along with the extra 4 inches in width are great. Radio is better and all the computer stuff you expect in a new car. I love my original Smart but this is clearly an upgrade. Now that they have the procedure for flat towing this was a must. I have run through the process for towing and it works well and blue ox baseplate has been ordered.

Congrats. Great little car. We are staying with our 451 electric as our toad. We are down south with it right now. Perfect car for the coachella valley. Power is pricey here (close to 21 cents a KWH) but it is still a blast to put the top down and burn around the valley for about 1.50 day for a full "tank". I like the lines of the new 453. We took one for a brief test drive and there are some definite refinements. Love to see a pic or two of your new ride.
Here is ours and one of our motorhome mounted charge centre.

Enjoy and stay safe on the road.
