Smart #2 2027: Key Specs and Features
At a time when the automotive industry is moving toward larger and taller models, the Smart #2 2027 takes a completely different path. It is a two-seat electric car measuring approximately 2.75 meters in length, yet it proves that a practical car does not necessarily need huge dimensions to meet the demands of modern life.
From easy maneuvering on narrow streets to the ability to park in limited spaces, this car bets that small size may be the feature many urban drivers are looking for.
However, the surprise is that the Smart #2 does not rely solely on its compact dimensions. It combines them with an 82-horsepower electric motor, a driving range of up to 290 km, and fast charging that can raise the battery level from 10% to 80% in around 20 minutes under ideal conditions. Its estimated starting price is less than SAR 84,000.
It also adds a 10.1-inch central screen, driver-assistance systems, and comfort features including heated seats and a heated steering wheel in some versions.

Power and Performance
The Smart #2 2027 does not attempt to compete with sporty electric cars in terms of acceleration or power. Instead, it uses its small size to deliver a driving experience suited to the rhythm of busy cities. The car is powered by a rear electric motor producing 82 horsepower and 130 Nm of torque, paired with a single-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive. Its top speed reaches 140 km/h, while it requires 11.6 seconds to accelerate from a standstill to 100 km/h.
Although these figures do not place it among the fastest electric cars, the Smart #2 is fundamentally different. Its 1,140-kg weight and compact dimensions of less than 2.75 meters give it practical qualities for daily transportation and maneuvering through narrow streets.
It also features a five-link multi-link rear suspension, with the battery positioned beneath the vehicle floor to help lower the center of gravity.
The result is an engineering package focused on ease of use and control in urban spaces, rather than pursuing performance figures that most city drivers do not need.
The following table shows the power and performance specifications of the Smart #2 2027:
| Specification | Details |
|---|---|
| Engine type | Electric |
| Maximum power | 82 horsepower |
| Torque | 130 Nm |
| Transmission | Single-speed automatic |
| Drivetrain | Rear-wheel drive (RWD) |
| Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h | 11.6 seconds |
| Top speed | 140 km/h |
| Weight | 1,140 kg |
| Rear suspension | Five-link multi-link |
| Platform | Electric Compact Architecture (ECA) |
Battery Range
The Smart #2 2027 relies on a 35.8-kWh lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery, providing a driving range of up to 290 km according to the WLTP standard, with energy consumption of 13.6 kWh per 100 km.
These figures suit the car’s intended use for daily travel within cities, particularly short trips and easy parking in crowded areas. However, the impact of high temperatures and air-conditioning use on the actual range should be taken into account.
The car supports fast charging at up to 65 kW, allowing the battery to charge from 10% to 80% in around 20 minutes under ideal conditions. AC charging takes approximately 3 hours at 11 kW for the Premium and Couture Edition trims, compared with 5 hours at 7.4 kW for the Pure trim.
Exterior Design
The Smart #2 2027 returns to the small-car philosophy that has shaped the brand’s identity since its early days, but with an electric character and a modern design created by the luxurious Mercedes-Benz.
Despite its limited dimensions, it does not look like a basic economy car. It combines curved lines, a two-tone body, and frameless doors, while positioning the wheels close to the body’s corners to maximize the available space.
Its key exterior design features include:
- Front fascia: LED headlights with a distinctive curved design, along with automatic high beams that help improve nighttime visibility.
- Side design: Compact dimensions that make it easier to move through narrow streets and park in limited spaces, along with 16-inch aluminum wheels featuring an Xora design.
- Roof: A panoramic glass roof that gives the cabin an open feel, with a manual sunshade to reduce sunlight entering the cabin.
- Rear section: A split tailgate that allows the glass to open independently of the lower section, making it easier to access luggage in tight spaces.
- Couture Edition: Distinguished by a matte white finish, a gold roof, and special gold accents, with production limited to 999 cars worldwide.
Exterior Dimensions
The Smart #2’s philosophy becomes clear when looking at its dimensions. Its length is less than 2.75 meters in the Pure and Premium versions, giving it a clear advantage in crowded parking areas and neighborhoods with narrow streets in cities.
The following table shows the car’s exterior dimensions:
| Specification | Measurement |
|---|---|
| Length |
|
| Width without mirrors | 1,760 mm |
| Width with mirrors | 1,939 mm |
| Height | 1,555 mm |
| Wheelbase | 1,875 mm |
| Ground clearance | 120 mm |
| Number of seats | Two seats |
| Trunk capacity | 305 liters |
| Maximum trunk capacity | 527 liters |
| Wheel size | 16 inches |
These figures confirm that the Smart #2 was designed primarily as a city car. It provides expandable storage space despite its small body, although its 120-mm ground clearance calls for caution when crossing tall speed bumps and parking-garage entrances.
Interior Design
The Smart #2 2027’s interior adopts a practical design that efficiently uses the available space, with two seats suited to daily travel in urban areas. Despite the car’s small size, it offers 305 liters of trunk space, expandable to 527 liters, providing suitable storage for daily trips and shopping.
The interior details add further flexibility and comfort. The rear door features a split design that allows the glass to open independently, making it easier to access luggage in tight parking spaces.
The panoramic glass roof also gives the cabin a more open feel, with a manual sunshade for controlling sunlight entry.
Key interior features:
- Two seats designed for individual or two-person travel.
- Connected-seat design that gives the cabin a modern appearance.
- 305-liter trunk capacity, expandable to 527 liters when the storage area is enlarged.
- Split rear door for easier access to luggage in tight spaces.
- Panoramic glass roof with a manual sunshade.

Key technology and entertainment features:
- 10.1-inch central touchscreen.
- 8.8-inch digital driver display.
- Sennheiser audio system with 7 speakers.
- Customizable 256-color ambient lighting in the Couture Edition.
- Smart Pillar system for adding compatible accessories inside the cabin.
- V2L technology for powering compatible external devices using battery energy.
These features give the Smart #2 2027 a level of technology beyond what some might expect from a car of this size, with certain features varying by trim, particularly in the Couture Edition.
Safety and Security
The Smart #2 2027 prioritizes occupant safety by combining a reinforced structure with a range of driver-assistance systems. It relies on the Tridion Cell Evo structure, designed using multiple steel layers and a high proportion of high-strength steel to improve body rigidity and protect occupants.
Its safety focus extends beyond the vehicle’s structure. It includes features that help the driver monitor the road and remain alert to potential hazards, supporting its use for daily urban travel.
Key safety and security systems:

How Do You Choose the Right Smart #2 2027 Trim?
Choosing the right Smart #2 2027 trim depends on your daily usage and how much you value charging speed and additional features. Since the car is designed for two people and focuses on urban transportation, it is best to determine your priorities before choosing among the three trims.
Syarah experts recommend choosing the appropriate trim according to the following criteria:
- Smart #2 Pure: Suitable if you are looking for a small electric car for daily transportation and 7.4-kW home charging is sufficient for you, without needing some of the additions available in higher trims.
- Smart #2 Premium: A suitable option if you prefer faster 11-kW home charging while retaining the car’s practical character without moving to the version with exclusive design touches.
- Smart #2 Couture Edition: Suitable if you care about distinctive design and special details, such as the matte white finish, gold roof, heated seats and steering wheel, and multicolor ambient lighting. It is also suitable for those who prefer limited-production editions.
The Syarah team emphasizes the importance of comparing the charging and comfort features you actually need before making a purchase decision, rather than allowing appearance alone to be the deciding factor.

Syarah Experts’ Opinion of the Smart #2 2027 
The Smart #2 2027 offers a different vision of an urban electric car. Rather than relying on large dimensions or high power to attract attention, it focuses on easy movement and parking, along with technological features and driver-assistance systems that go beyond the traditional image of small cars.
Its approximately 2.75-meter length gives it a clear advantage on crowded streets and in limited parking spaces, while the announced 290-km WLTP range enables it to cover many daily trips. Actual range will vary depending on driving conditions, temperature, and air-conditioning use.
Also, the car’s compact dimensions could be useful on busy city streets, particularly when traveling between neighborhoods and looking for parking in commercial areas. However, high summer temperatures remain an important factor when evaluating the car’s actual range, as extended air-conditioning use may increase energy consumption.
Therefore, having a parking space equipped with a home charger or easy access to charging stations will be among the key factors determining its suitability for daily use, especially for those who rely on the car for frequent trips.
From a practical perspective, Syarah’s technical experts believe that the car’s key strengths lie in combining compact dimensions with fast charging of up to 65 kW, along with trunk capacity of up to 527 liters when the storage area is expanded. However, its two-seat layout clearly limits its suitability for families or those who need to transport more than one passenger, while its driving range makes planning long journeys important.
