Beyond its striking presence on the road, the smart #5 enters the Australian market as a proven world-class offering, having won multiple awards overseas. Styled by the Mercedes-Benz global design team, it introduces a distinctive boxy and upright silhouette.
A striking LED matrix headlight design, and an interior layout that maximises space feature, including an expandable boot, and seats that fold flat to create an in-car suite, ensuring ample room for everyday commutes and weekend getaways.
Passengers are treated to an elevated environment featuring premium leather upholstery, and a 256-colour ambient lighting system.
A multiple-screen interactive setup, powered by the advanced AMD V2000 high-computing chip delivers what has to be one of the coolest digital displays on the market. An immersive acoustic experience is delivered through a premium Sennheiser audio system.
Driving confidence is further enhanced by a smart Pilot Assist system, while its 100kWh battery with 4C capability and 800V high voltage platform mean charging is possible in as little as 18 minutes (from 10 to 80 per cent).
An impressive range of up to 590km sets it apart from rivals. Ride comfort and dynamic handling are assured through a sophisticated chassis setup featuring front double-wishbone and rear five-link suspension, complemented by multiple driving modes.
To further support outdoor utility, the vehicle features Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) functionality, empowering off-the-grid adventures. For those seeking the pinnacle of electric driving dynamics, the smart #5 BRABUS edition takes performance to the extreme.
Generating immense power through an intelligent all-wheel drive powertrain, the BRABUS variant offers a highly athletic, sporty design and can accelerate to 100km in just 3.8 seconds. Retail deliveries of the smart #5 will commence in November.
