Smart cars are as good on any freeway as any other vehicle. We log LOTS of interstate and highway miles and the car is as solid as a rock. Will happily hold 75 mph all day long. It was designed for european autobahns and there are literally hundreds of thousands of them on european highways. I would recommend talking to actual users of smart cars as they will be a better source of info. We tow a smart car tent trailer with ours occasionally and it handles and stops like a champ. Don't expect all kinds of acceleration and it takes a while to get used to the standard transmission that automatically shifts but it is a great little ride and all ours have been extremely reliable. Many complain the transmission is jerky. It is no jerkier than any other standard transmission, you just don't have to push a clutch pedal, the car does it for you. But it will feel exactly like any other standard transmission car. The only down side is it seems to take a solid 8000 to 10,000 miles before the high mileage shows up. Until then expect high thirtys to low 40's for mileage,
Good luck.
