Built to conquer the city with precision rather than size, this 2018 smart fortwo electric drive passion turns crowded streets, tight parking spots, and dense traffic into its natural playground. This is not a compromise car—it’s a purpose-built urban tool that leverages its compact footprint, electric drivetrain, and intelligent packaging to deliver a driving experience that feels effortless, focused, and surprisingly refined for its category. Powering this pre-owned 2018 smart fortwo electric drive passion is an all-electric BEV system with a rear-mounted electric motor driving the rear wheels. The rear-wheel drive layout gives the car confident traction and nimble maneuverability, ideal for quick lane changes and tight turns in city environments. An electric power-assist steering system further sharpens low-speed control while keeping effort light and intuitive.

Regenerative brakes and driver-selectable regen levels allow you to recapture energy during deceleration and tailor the driving feel, while an electric power/regeneration gauge and traction battery level gauge keep you informed at a glance. Inside, the cabin is built around simplicity and comfort, with thoughtful touches throughout. Bucket front seats are finished in cloth upholstery, matched with a cloth upholstered dashboard and cloth door trim inserts for a cohesive look. The driver’s seat offers 6-way directional controls, including manual reclining and height adjustment, supported by a driver seat armrest for added comfort. The front passenger seat includes 4-way directional controls and can fold flat, enabling extra cargo flexibility when needed. Full carpet floor covering, carpet front floor mats, and carpet cargo area flooring enhance comfort and noise isolation, while coloured console, door panel, and instrument panel inserts, along with metal-look interior accents, create a modern, distinctive interior aesthetic. A key highlight of this fortwo electric drive passion is its connectivity and in-car technology, anchored by its integration of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Apple CarPlay transforms the 3.5-inch primary display into an intuitive extension of your iPhone, allowing you to access navigation, messages, music, and compatible apps with familiar icons and voice integration. Whether you are queuing up a playlist, following turn-by-turn guidance, or replying to messages hands-free, CarPlay helps reduce distractions by keeping your core functions centralized and easy to control from the steering wheel or via voice. For Android users, Android Auto delivers a similarly seamless experience, mirroring essential smartphone functions to the vehicle’s display. With Android Auto, you can bring your preferred navigation apps, stream music, access your contacts, and use voice commands for many tasks, all while keeping your phone safely stowed. Combined with Bluetooth handsfree wireless device connectivity and wireless audio streaming, both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto make this compact EV feel technologically current and user-friendly, especially in daily commuting scenarios where communications and navigation are essential. The infotainment system supports AM/FM radio, an auxiliary input jack, radio data system (RDS), external memory control, and a standard speaker setup with 2 speakers.

Steering wheel mounted audio controls, a redundant digital speedometer, digital/analog instrumentation, and a trip computer enhance usability, while a digital clock and exterior temperature display provide key info at a glance. Comfort is further improved with automatic climate control and remote-activated interior climate preconditioning. This allows you to manage cabin temperature before you get in, a particularly valuable feature for an electric city car that may be parked outdoors. Heated front seats and a heated leather and metal-look steering wheel add comfort in colder weather, making daily use more pleasant. From a safety standpoint, this smart fortwo electric drive passion is equipped with a robust suite of features. It includes 7 airbags: front impact airbags for driver and passenger, seat-mounted side impact airbags for both front occupants, curtain first-row overhead airbags, and a driver side knee airbag.

Front seatbelt pretensioners, 2 seatbelt pre-tensioners in total, and an airbag occupancy sensor further enhance occupant protection. The composite/galvanized steel body structure incorporates side impact beams, while a rear mounted camera, video-feed rearview mirror, and rear cargo area ajar warning add confidence when parking or maneuvering in tight spaces. All-speed ABS with 4-wheel antilock brakes, four channel ABS brakes, brake assist, electronic stability control, hill start assist, all-speed traction control, and a tire mobility kit support control and preparedness. Exterior design balances function with a distinctive appearance. This two-door EV rides on 15 x 5-inch front and 15 x 5.5-inch rear machined aluminum wheels with painted accents, wrapped in P165/65VR15 AS BSW front tires and P185/60VR15 AS BSW rear tires. The two-tone paint scheme gives it visual character, complemented by black door handles, black door mirrors, black side window trim, and a black grille.

Body-coloured front and rear bumpers, multiple enclosed reflector/halogen headlights, and LED daytime running lights complete the sleek, urban-focused appearance. Light tinted windows, a flip-up rear windshield, rear windshield wiper, rear window defroster, and a liftgate/tailgate rear cargo door support everyday practicality. Daily usability is enhanced through a range of convenience features. Keyfob keyless entry manages power door locks with 2-stage unlocking, and the all-in-one remote fob functions as both remote and ignition key. Remote panic alarm, power first-row windows with one-touch down, power fuel door lock, and manual charge port door activation deliver simple, direct control over the vehicle’s access points. A day/night rearview mirror, illuminated entry, fade interior courtesy lights, and variable instrument panel lighting contribute to a well-thought-out cabin experience. Storage is cleverly integrated throughout this compact interior.

You’ll find 3 beverage holders, driver and passenger door bins, a partial floor console, cargo area concealed storage, cargo area tie downs, a locking glove box, and a plastic trunk lid trim creating a clean, durable rear compartment. The rear cargo configuration supports everyday errands, with the fold flat front passenger seat enabling bulkier items when only one occupant is on board. Ride and handling are configured for urban environments. The smart fortwo electric drive passion features independent front suspension with struts, non-independent rear suspension, gas-pressurized shocks, front anti-roll bar, and standard ride suspension tuning. Together with rack-and-pinion steering and rear-wheel drive, this layout focuses on maneuverability and comfort at city speeds. Speed-sensitive and rain-detecting wipers help maintain visibility in changing weather conditions. Additional details underline the vehicle’s electric focus and efficiency.

As a ZEV (zero emissions vehicle) with Tier 2 Bin 1 emissions classification, it delivers an eco-conscious driving solution without tailpipe emissions. A lead acid battery supports vehicle systems, while a lithium-ion traction battery underpins propulsion. Battery charge warning, low tire pressure warning, low-level brake fluid warning, and a service interval indicator help ensure the vehicle remains in proper operating condition. Security and peace of mind are handled by an immobilizer, audio system theft deterrent, security system, auto-locking doors, auto on/off headlight control, headlights-on reminder, and a key-in-vehicle warning. An external acoustic pedestrian alert system contributes to safety in low-speed urban driving by helping pedestrians detect the otherwise quiet electric vehicle. With 46,522 kilometers on the odometer, this pre-owned 2018 smart fortwo electric drive passion offers a mature balance of electric efficiency, urban agility, and surprisingly rich feature content in a compact footprint.

Its deep integration of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, combined with solid safety equipment, comfortable heated seating, and practical cargo solutions, makes it a compelling choice for drivers who need a dedicated, highly maneuverable electric vehicle tailored to city life.
