Hello and welcome to The Telescope.
2
Every week we bring you a fresh insight from the biggest car market in the world.
3
Welcome to the fully electric Smart 2.
4
I'm very fortunate to be in this hall where the three previous generation smarts are right alongside me.
5
You can see from the overall size, proportion, stance
6
and design this is a true smart just as uncompromising as
7
all of the previous generation smart this is the smart we've
8
all been waiting for from this angle you can see the
9
front overhand is just as extreme as all of the previous
10
generation smart this car measures at 2 .7 meters long
11
and it looks quite wide because it's
12
that short it's still less than 1 .7 meters wide
13
and about 1 .55 meters tall this is a true electric smart they have not enlarged this just
14
because it's an electric smart one thing i need to say at this point is
15
that there is no frunk
16
because once i open this you will see it's quite tightly
17
packed it's ridiculous to ask for a frunk on a car
18
this small the majority of this car storage is towards the
19
back similar to what the previous generation smart has done
20
and we're going to go there now the rear glass can be opened separately
21
and i think this is a genius move this is makes ingress
22
and egress of taking luggage in and out so much easier
23
and you open the bottom half by pulling a lever here
24
and you can sit here quite comfortably you know this is
25
a still a very nice touch in terms of luggage space
26
because this car is rear motor rear wheel drive the floor is quite high
27
but this is similar to previous generation smart they are also rear wheel drive
28
so luggage space is okay if not spectacular
29
and i need to point one thing out
30
because this is a telescope review is
31
that there is a rear wiper it's just hidden here this
32
car is currently in a kind of a showroom mode
33
so i cannot show you the rear wiper in motion
34
but this car has a rear wiper of course it does
35
because we have the previous generation smart to compare the tire has gone bigger
36
and wider this is now 185 at the front
37
and 205 at the rear significantly bigger than previous generation smart
38
this car is rear motor rear wheel drive power comes from here it's rated at 60 kilowatts
39
and this car is rated at 1 .1 tons this is gonna feel
40
so much more linear
41
so much more refined to drive than the previous petrol powered
42
smart well let's just say the gearbox on the previous petrol
43
powered smart are not the best from the side normal size door mirror
44
and completely conventional mechanical door handle this does not have those nonsense tesla flash manual door handles
45
and styled by mercedes we go inside now on the inside i will start with the positive big door handles
46
and very intuitive to open and close the door
47
and you can see here this must be the top spec
48
has the sennheiser sound system the steering wheel i could be wrong
49
but this could be the standard smart steering wheel from the big those bigger smarts
50
and you have an instrument display here air conditioning control are mainly in the screen
51
but you can manually adjust the direction
52
and also the fan speed of these vents
53
and i need to point one thing out it's nicely dampened it's not those very floppy
54
very cheap plasticky air conditioning vents i don't know if you can hear that click at either end
55
it's someone's put some effort into this that is the positive the negative
56
the overall material quality
57
if you come you're coming from previous generation smart i think you should be happy with this
58
because you feel nicely built
59
and also i can see here there's a quarter inch mount
60
here you must be able to mount some kind of a phone mount here that's very popular
61
if you've watched my reviews on the Xiaomi Su7,
62
some Chinese EVs have started providing quarter inch phone mounts with wireless connection without a cable, you know, the perfect phone mount.
63
This should also have that.
64
The negative is because the smart has a very obvious rival in China, and that's the Firefly.
65
To better prepare for this review, I drove my wife's Firefly to the airport before sitting in this
66
and i have to say firefly's interior feels much more premium
67
than this both from material and from design
68
and also i'll just point out one thing this car has a capsule like a very rounded off instrument display
69
but this screen is totally rectangular by
70
that i mean the angle is precisely 90 degrees it's not
71
like your iphone this is the picture of my Firefly you
72
can see iPhone screens are rounded off at the same curvature
73
but this is a bit incoherent the instrument display is sort of a capsule like
74
but this infotainment display is totally rectangular this screen feels like
75
an off -the -shelf screen from someone else you know this does not feel like a custom screen
76
just for smart another thing is
77
if you're like me who like to sit very low in
78
a copy sit as low as possible then i'm about even
79
sitting bolt upright the top of the screens kind of eats
80
into your front visibility it's above the lower threshold of this windscreen
81
if you like to sit taller like i'm raising this the
82
seat now roughly to about this position then the screen is lower than the front windscreen
83
but i would think
84
that this screen should be sized in relation to everything else to the front visibility
85
but currently at the default position at my default driving position
86
the top of the screen eats into the um front windscreen's visibility and i think for europe
87
this might be a weird thing to say you know people
88
always say chinese people like the always like the biggest screens
89
but I think this car for Europe you could have gone one size smaller
90
and you will not offend anyone you know this car is
91
small this screen feels slightly too big for this cabin here
92
at the center controls you have the has a light on
93
and off air conditioning switch and the window control is here at the center
94
so oh just so you know this is frameless door.
95
Cabin storage is okay.
96
You have one cup holder.
97
There is a bit of a storage here.
98
This center armrest could be flicked up and you have even more storage here.
99
Wireless charging phone mount here.
100
A USB -C and A port here.
101
And you have a bit of a storage here on the door.
102
This glove box is marginally sized but at least you have a glove box.
103
This light is fairly well done for a car this small
104
you know it's quite wide it's a fairly big light source in car lighting is quite good
105
and rear visibility
106
because this is a two -seater of course is as fantastic
107
as you can get sun visor let me just check this
108
it cannot i think smart you should make this sun visor extendable you know right now
109
if i flick it towards this side the side of my face is completely exposed to the sunlight.
110
And I don't think being as smart, you should be able to do this.
111
I will quickly check in previous generation smart to see if you can do this, but I would like to see this sun visor to be extendable.
112
You have a fixed panoramic glass and you also have a manually operated sun blind.
113
That's fine.
114
This doesn't need to be electrified.
115
A manually operated sun blind is even faster and easier to operate.
116
Overall, I must say I'm slightly underwhelmed.
117
I thought this could challenge the Firefly, especially on the interior, but it doesn't.
118
And that's a bit of a shame.
119
Cabin ergonomics, I would suggest the driver and the passenger to offset a little bit because this car is that narrow.
120
I'm someone who likes to sit quite tight towards the steering wheel.
121
So if you can see, I've positioned the front passengers to be slightly offset so
122
that my elbow could be here and the front passenger's elbow could be here in
123
that case if you arrange the seat like this
124
it's not awkward at all i'm five foot eleven my cameraman is about five foot seven we
125
and he's bulkier than me and we can comfortably sit inside this is more spacious
126
and we've tested in previous generation smarts both of us sitting
127
in this feels more airy more spacious than previous generation smart the only negative is
128
that because this car needs to comply with the safety regulation of 2026
129
and not previous year's safety regulations all of the pillars feel slightly thicker
130
but I think that's inevitable the infotainment system is I think
131
the standard Geely Flyme Auto system with a smart designed theme
132
on top of it overall design why it feels snappy enough
133
but overall design wise this does not feel custom made to the same degree
134
that the Firefly's infotainment is to that car you know
135
that car's infotainment is surprisingly unique and custom made just for
136
that particular car this i can sense that underneath this is a geely system
137
but with a top layer from smart
138
if you haven't experienced the firefly you should be happy enough with this
139
because it feels snappy it's got car play but
140
because i just came out of a firefly i'll still say
141
the fireflies infotainment feels nicer better designed more polished than this
142
there's no other way of putting this this might be the
143
most important electric vehicle this year coming out of china especially
144
for the european market the streets of paris rome these kind
145
of mega the European cities finally will have a true electric
146
smart with an acceptable range this car is fitted currently with
147
a 35 .8 kilowatt hour battery giving it a range i
148
can see on the dashboard 400 kilometer cltc for the double tp they are aiming 300 kilometers
149
and charging from about 10 to 80 percent is about 20 minutes
150
which means it's fast enough this is a true electric smart
151
unless you are the kind of people who drive the previous
152
petrol powered smart across european continent in a pinch you can really do
153
that in previous generation smart i understand with the fully electric smart with the current infrastructure level of continental europe
154
that might be more difficult
155
but for what most people use this car for you will be
156
so much more happier with the fully electric smart than the previous generation smart
157
because it's going to be that much quieter that much refined
158
that much linear you don't need to change gear
159
and i think the fully electric powertrain suits the smart product better than the
160
underpowered unrefined petrol powertrain and especially the clunky gearbox those are from eu customers point of view
161
if you haven't seen the firefly if you don't have access to
162
that car then i think you should be totally happy with
163
this however i had thought smart by launching later than the
164
firefly this could overwhelm the firefly in every possible way
165
but it hasn't in terms of size this has agility also
166
the smaller the better this car curb to curb is less
167
than seven meters this is comfortably more agile than the firefly
168
but the interior is a bit of a letdown for me firefly is a much more premium interior than this
169
and i'm also curious about this car's mainland china pricing
170
because for european customers you have no other choice
171
but for chinese customers you have the firefly
172
and it's not as easy of a choice as i thought
173
it was going to be you know i thought this is
174
going to move the game on in terms of the ultra compact electric vehicle segment
175
but it doesn't
176
but overall on a high level i'm still very happy the
177
smart has finally done what it's always supposed to do in
178
the first place in my opinion this should be the first smart to come out
179
and not the smart one is okay it's still quite a compact car
180
but the smart three and five
181
and six those are not real smart for me this is in every possible way
182
and also looking at all of this previous generation smarts here this is a real smart
183
if you've been waiting for this this is going to be worth your wait
184
that is all from the telescope today

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
