RE: 🏎️My trusty companion on my trip in Tenerife. Smart.🏎️
When first Smarts hit the market (it was around last ice-age probably), they were widely advertised as a "safe" because of their hard construction, compared to a nutshell. They even tried to prove it showing some crash tests, where Smart was using crumple zone of other car.
I immediately became suspicious.
Because, you know... trees and city lamps are not equipped with crumple zones ;-)
So it may be a fun to drive and easy to park little car, but I'm a bit afraid that it quickly turns into the coffin on the wheels when you hit anything ;)
I am sure it is:) You can advertise things when you take them out of the context, but you can not take anything out from the road and zillion variables. It is a nice car on a good dry road in a city though when you are not going faster than 60 km/h. And even then:) But anything above 100 km/h is playing with death i suppose :)
