Trik: those look fun, but I still like this modded smart:



Tandem seating a la VW 1 liter car means both reduced frontal area and lower Cd.

Escaping from the original car's poor aerodynamics to this shape results in 2.5 L/100 km / 94 mpg US / 113 mpg Imperial.

Based on the previous gen smart (with the diesel): Modded smart car: Jetcar 2.5
