This time, however, Smart’s smallest car will be available exclusively as an EV. The Smart brand made a name for itself in the late 1990s with its revolutionary Fortwo. The tiny, two-door city car was discontinued in 2024 after three generations, but the funky two-seater is now back for the electric age. The individual cells are manufactured by CATL, but Geely, which owns half of the Smart brand, is responsible for the final assembly. According to the MIIT, the city EV tips the scales at 2,491 pounds (1,130 kilograms) and tops out at 87 miles per hour (130 kilometers per hour).
