Input from floor-mounted shifter or optional steering wheel-mounted paddles controls a servo-operated clutch and sequential automated gearbox. The vehicle may be driven in automatic mode, though the shift points are not as smooth as in a traditional automatic transmission. In paddle shifter mode, the operator controls the shift points but cannot feather or adjust the speed of the clutch. Thus some skill, and a slight lifting of the accelerator pedal, is required to achieve a smooth shift. From 2009, second generation Fortwos were delivered with improved software that made automatic gear changes both smoother and faster than earlier models. The software, in the form of a free ECU upgrade was also made available for 2008 second generation cars, along with a new battery in certain cases.[2][3] [edit] Parking An example of smart fortwo compact parking The Smart car allows back-in parking in otherwise parallel parking zones; its length of 250 cm (98.4 in) equals the width of a truck or a regular parking slot, allowing two or three Smarts to park in a standard space reserved for a single car. However, this type of parking has been banned in Munich, Germany, amongst other places. Such parking in parallel-designated spaces is illegal in most U.S.A jurisdictions.[citation needed] Current model is 269 cm (106.1 Inches). [edit] Identity and registration The Smart features interchangeable body panels—whereby one car can easily assume a different look. To accommodate a licensing agent's notation of a vehicle's color, the fortwo is sometimes registered as silver or black based on the Tridion frame color, which remains constant regardless of the body panels.

Forfun2 Concept: an off-road version of the fortwo introduced at the 2005 Athens Motor Show by Greek 4x4 Rally Champion Stefan Attart. The forfun 2 Concept combines the body of a fortwo with the chassis and drivetrain of a Unimog. It sports monster truck-like 26-inch wheels wrapped in 140 cm diameter tires and winding keys where the fortwo's rear wheels are supposed to be.[5][6] Brabus: In the 2007 Geneva Motor Show, Smart introduced the Brabus version of the Smart Fortwo, It has 98 PS (72 kW; 97 hp) of power and 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) takes 9.9 seconds with top speed electrically limited at 155 km/h (96 mph) Smart K: The smart K was launched in October 2001, exclusively for the Japanese market. It was designed exclusively to fit the Japanese kei car regulations by adopting specially developed rear fenders and shortening the track width and tire dimensions. As a result, with the width reduced to 1,470 mm, the smart K complies with the Japanese kei car regulations. Also, the engine displacement remains unchanged from 598 cc, as specified in the standard. Safety features include ESP (Electronic Stability Program) and BAS (Brake Assist System) as standard. The Smart K also facilitates the driver's starting procedure with the Hill Start Assist that makes a starts on inclined planes easier.[7] The Smart K was discontinued as of November, 2004.[8] smart ForTwo Edition Limited One: Featured special edition "pyrite grey metallic" body work with contrasting silver Tridion Safety cell.

[edit] Engine and fuel economy The new 999 cc version 3B21 (2007 onwards) is produced by Mitsubishi Motors and it comprises normally aspirated (NA) and turbo versions. The turbo petrol version has a power of 84 PS (83 hp). The NA 999 cc engine has 11.4:1 compression ratio and premium fuel (95+ RON) is recommended. It is rated at 71 hp (53 kW). The US NA 999 cc engine has a 10:1 compression ratio and premium fuel (91 Octane) is recommended and is rated at 70 hp (71 PS; 52 kW). German tuner company Brabus, in a joint venture with Smart, has developed a version with 72 kW (97 hp; 98 PS) and 140 N·m torque, originally available only in Europe, but now available elsewhere. European Union (EU) testing rates the 999 cc Smart at 4.7 L/100 km (60 mpg-imp; 50 mpg-US) for the gasoline model and 3.4 L/100 km (83 mpg-imp; 69 mpg-US) for the diesel.[citation needed] The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) rates the vehicle at 36 mpg-US (6.5 L/100 km; 43 mpg-imp) combined.[9] [edit] Concept The smart fortwo's length is 8 ft 10 in (2.69 m) (second generation). An exposed, rigid steel frame, marketed as the "Tridion" frame, surrounds and protects the passenger compartment while defining the car's shape and design—and allowing for interchangeable plastic body panels to complete the exterior. With a weight of 730 kg (1,609 lb), it is one of the lightest cars in the European market. [edit] Safety The Smart is equipped with seat-mounted combination side airbags as well as electronic stability control. To maximize the front crumple zone, the smart fortwo's engine is rear-mounted. In Insurance Institute for Highway Safety tests, the 2008 Smart Fortwo, the smallest car marketed in the US market, earned the top overall rating of "Good" in both the front and side crash tests. The Fortwo received the "Good" score in 8 of 11 measured injury categories.[10] Its seat/head restraints earned the second highest rating of "Acceptable" for protection against whiplash in rear impacts. The IIHS did an offset crash test with a Smart Fortwo and Mercedes-Benz C-Class, which is 40% of one car's driver's side head on with 40% of another car's driver's side, and the Smart received a "Poor" rating due to the occupants' heads slamming into the steering wheel. Also, there was too much intrusion into the footwell of the Smart Fortwo. Dummy movement was not well controlled. The Smart Fortwo spun 450 degrees in the air upon impact.[11] The Fortwo in its stand-alone IIHS crash test The Fortwo crashed into a Mercedes-Benz C-Class NHTSA crash test results for the 2008 Smart Fortwo:[12] Frontal Driver: Frontal Passenger: Side Driver: *The driver door unlatched and opened during the side impact crash which increases the likelihood of occupant ejection. Rollover: Euro NCAP crash results:[13] Adult Occupant: Pedestrian: [edit] Hybrid At the 2007 Frankfurt Motor Show, Smart launched the a "micro hybrid drive" version of the ForTwo, a mild hybrid. Smart claimed this provides a fuel efficiency improvement of eight percent from 50 miles per US gallon (4.7 L/100 km; 60 mpg-imp) to almost 55 miles per US gallon (4.3 L/100 km; 66 mpg-imp), while Carbon dioxide emissions drop from 112 to 103g/km.[4] The mhd version of the fortwo is not currently available in the USA or Canada. [edit] Smart electric drive For more details on this topic, see Smart ED. An all-electric version of the fortwo, the "smart fortwo electric drive", has been in development since 2006.[14][15] Zytek developed the motor and produced the first-generation "smart EV" cars powered by sodium-nickel chloride batteries.[16] Market trials began during 2007[17][18] in London. Externally it appears identical to the standard 'Smart Fortwo coupé'.[19] At the London motorshow in July 2008, Smart representatives gave estimates of the Smart ED purchase price to be around £16,000 (€20,000). It was also presented at the 2008 Paris Car Show. Production delivery was expected in 2010. It will feature 30 kW (40 hp) output, a top speed of 70 mph (110 km/h) and will be capable of 0-30 mph (48 km/h) in 6.5 seconds. The European fortwo ED can travel up to 72 miles (116 km) between charges. It typically takes around 8 hours for a full charge.[20][21][22][23] In 2008 Tesla Motors signed an agreement to supply the first 1000 battery packs for these cars.[24] In August 2009 Daimler announced production of second-generation vehicles using Tesla's lithium-ion battery packs would begin in late 2009 for trials in Europe and the USA, with general availability in 2012.[25] [edit] BRABUS 2008 fortwo BRABUS. It is a sport package that include a sport exhaust with dual center tips, sport suspension, 15- front and 17-inch rear wheels, power steering and all the BRABUS visual cues. The originally planned turbocharged engine was not included.[26] It is available in cabriolet or coupe variations, the latter equipped with a glass panoramic roof, and a choice of two colors, metallic silver or deep black. The 2009 Smart Fortwo Brabus has Manufacturer's Suggested retail price (MSRP) of $18,635USD for the coupe, and $21,635USD for cabriolet.[27] The Canadian models cost $21,900 for coupe, and $24,900 for cabriolet.[28] [edit] Canadian 10th anniversary edition smart Canada released ten 10th anniversary edition smart fortwo cars in February 2009. Each car started life as a Canadian BRABUS model before being converted into 10th anniversary editions by BRABUS in Germany. All of the cars are arctic grey metallic with chalet brown and alcantara leather interiors with black BRABUS Monoblock 7 wheels. Each car has a number plate on the dash to signify its production number out of ten. One was given away in the 10th anniversary contest and the remaining 9 cars were available for purchase via smart Canada's buyers draw. smart Canada also produced 1:87 scale versions, of which 10,000 were made.

[edit] International markets [edit] Australia The Smart fortwo is available in Australia since 2003 in only the middle 'Pulse' range, and with the petrol engine. As of April 16, 2007 the base price for the fortwo coupé is AU$19,900, and for the fortwo cabriolet is $22,900. The Smart fortwo is sold through selected Mercedes-Benz dealers. [edit] Canada The Smart fortwo was introduced in Canada in 2004 and sold through Mercedes-Benz dealers. Only the turbo-diesel powerplant was offered for the coupé and convertible models because of tough emission regulations for gasoline engines dictated by Transport Canada. Demand was initially heavy, with up to six-month waiting lists in major urban areas in the spring of 2005. The vehicle has proven especially popular for light errand running for small shops and businesses, with many carrying custom paint jobs or stick-on graphics boldly advertising the associated product or service. In 2008, Canada only received the gasoline model because the diesel version does not meet 2007 emission standards. The fortwo carries a 1.0-litre engine that delivers up to 70 horsepower (52 kW) and a re-engineered automated-manual 5-speed transmission with a slightly larger body. It is not yet decided if any other engines will be offered by smart Canada in the future such as the micro hybrid or a future diesel model. At this point the 2009 model of the smart will continue to have the 70 hp (52 kW) gasoline powered engine. Despite the changes, the fortwo still sells well in Canada, with some dealers saying they once again have waiting lists of people looking for the cars. [edit] China The Smart "vending machine" in Shenyang, China In April 2008, Smart first premiered in the China Auto Show 2008 in Beijing. On October 1, 2008, the Smart "vending machine" road show had the first stop in Shenyang (at Isetan), and also started the pre-order period. The cost for reserving a Smart was 388 RMB.[29] The price range of smart fortwo in China is 158,000 to 206,000 RMB. [edit] Japan There is a Japan-only variant called the Smart K which is the only non-Japanese car that fulfills the regulations for Kei cars. [edit] United States [edit] Modified imports Smart Fortwo in the United States In early 2006, a specialty automotive import and engineering firm - G and K Auto conversions (GNKAuto.com) of Santa Ana California - after investing millions of dollars in testing and fees, received DOT, NHTSA, and EPA approval to sell a modified European specification Smart Fortwo in the US. The 23 modifications to the Smart Fortwo included DOT certified headlights, reinforced doors for additional side impact protection, an odometer that reads in miles rather than kilometers, and soft padding on the interior pillars and ceiling. Smart Fortwo dealers in the US were a mix of "green car" specialty companies (GreenCarCo.com), (EcoAutoInc.com) and exotic car dealers. Approximately 1,000 model year 2004, 2005, and 2006 Smart cars were imported without Smart's or Mercedes Benz's cooperation and converted by G&K. [edit] Made for US market On 26 June 2002, Smart fortwo was exhibited at the new Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) affiliate P.S. 1 in Queens, New York for the first time. In September 2006, Daimler AG announced that Smart USA, a division of Penske Auto Group (at the time of the announcement it was United Auto Group, later changed to PAG,[30] ) would be the official distributor for Smart in the United States and Puerto Rico. The redesigned smart fortwo (Model 451) has been available since January 2008 in the USA. Numerous changes were made from the previous model (450). Its Mercedes Benz power plant was replaced by a non-turbo Mitsubishi 3B21 engine and the overall dimensions of the car increased. The 2009 model year US version of the smart fortwo is available in 3 trims: Pure (base trim), Passion, and Passion cabriolet. Pure has an MSRP of US$11,990, Passion has an MSRP of $13,990, and the Passion Cabriolet has an MSRP $16,990.[31] A reservation program was launched by Smart USA in March, 2007.[32][33] This program allowed interested parties to place a $99 refundable deposit on the new fortwo in preparation for the product's launch. Since the product's launch, sales have surpassed production and the reservation program continues as a "wait list" program.[34][35] The average wait used to be 12 to 18 months for delivery; although due to the economy, many buyers couldn't purchase the vehicles when they were ready for delivery and many are available on dealer lots.[citation needed] The Smart Fortwo was rated as the most fuel efficient two-seater car in the United States Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) 2008 Fuel Economy Guide, with fuel efficiency ratings of 33 mpg-US (7.1 L/100 km; 40 mpg-imp) city and 41 mpg-US (5.7 L/100 km; 49 mpg-imp) highway.[36] The 2008 Smart Fortwo coupe was given an EPA fuel efficiency rating of 36 mpg-US (6.5 L/100 km; 43 mpg-imp) combined.[37] On May 14, 2008, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety released crash test results for the fortwo. The IIHS gave the fortwo top ratings in protecting passengers in front and side crashes.[38] However, the NHTSA cited a Safety Concern on their tests of a 2008 fortwo, stating "during the side impact test, the driver door unlatched and opened. A door opening during a side impact crash increases the likelihood of occupant ejection." [39] [edit] Chinese copy controversy Main article: Shuanghuan Noble In 2007, Chinese manufacturer Shijiazhuang Shuanghuan Automobile Co released the Shuanghuan Noble (also known as the Martin Motors Bubble), designed similarly to the Fortwo and prompting Daimler AG to sue Shuanghuan for copyright infringement.[40] The German manufacturer persuaded the Italian court to prohibit the Noble from being exhibited at the Bologna Motor Show, but importer Martin Motors violated that injunction and put the car on display.[41] In May 2009, a Greek judge ruled against Daimler, allowing the Noble to be sold in Greece. The judge cited that "if a vehicle varies in its technical specification, then any external similarities are irrelevant." This was in reference to the Noble being a front-engine, front-wheel-drive car while the ForTwo is rear-engined and rear-wheel-drive.[42] [edit] References ^ a b Farenc, Jacques (1998), Norris, Ian, ed., "European Industry: Mergers and Acquisitions", Automobile Year (Lausanne, Switzerland: Editions JR, J.-R.

Is it a car for enthusiasts or fashion victims? Well, you probably made that decision in 2002 when the first ‘450’ (the internal code name for the original Smart city car) with big Brabus wheels and more boost for its three-cylinder engine was launched.But the answer isn’t as clear cut as you might think. Why? Well, the new ‘451’ Brabus Smart is a car of contradictions. It’s mid-engined, rear-drive and has a pukka paddleshift manual gearbox. It weighs just 790kg and has a perky 97bhp, meaning a power-to-weight ratio superior to that of something like the Panda 100HP. Great.But at the same time the Fortwo is obviously too short and too tall to be a real sports car. In fact, driving dynamics were clearly sacrificed at the altar of urban functionality, and a tweaked turbo, bigger rubber and bodywork stretched over a wider track can’t disguise that the Smart is designed for roads with 30mph speed limits.Let’s not condemn it just yet, though. The new Smart has had a raft of revisions and it’d be nice to think that driving thrills can be found without a guilty conscience and a licence left in tatters. The most significant change is an increase in engine capacity from 698 to 999cc, but the new Fortwo is also slightly bigger – 195mm longer overall, 55mm of which falls within the wheelbase. It’s still a tiny and relatively light car, though, meaning the Brabus version can reach 62mph in 9.9sec before going on to hit its 95mph limiter.But it comes at a price. £13,520 to be precise. And if you want the Cabrio that figure rises to £15,470. Ouch. In simple terms the Brabus is hopelessly outclassed by conventional performance hatches at similar money. It’s not as quick in a straight line, less stable under braking, has less mechanical grip and doesn’t flow along a road as convincingly as any of its price rivals. A Mini Cooper would run rings around it.Yet somehow you just can’t help enjoying yourself in the Brabus. The engine feels almost a bit too much for the layout, and under full load a hurricane of gases blasts out of the twin tailpipes. The new five-speed ’box is quicker than the six-speeder of the old car, too, and the paddleshift is satisfyingly obedient, even if it demands you adopt a strange technique if you want to smooth downchanges – you don’t flick the downshift paddle and simultaneously flex heel to throttle to deliver a well-timed flare of revs, instead you hit the paddle first and then deliberately dial-in the blip to account for the lag in the gearbox programming. An odd quirk that seems entirely natural in such an odd, quirky car.The chassis is pretty stiff and the short wheelbase means you feel every lump and bump; on Yorkshire’s moorland roads the Brabus’s pace is dictated by the quality of the surface. Try too hard and you’re simply thrown off line. Fortunately the standard-fit (non-switchable) ESP tidies things up without too much drama.The ESP is pretty busy, too: the torquey little engine even has the yellow telltale flashing in a straight line in second gear, and as soon as any understeer builds (which it does pretty quickly), power is killed instantly. The Brabus Smart needs to be driven smoothly and always within the limits of its thin front tyres if you’re to avoid ESP intervention and clumsy, jerky progress.All Smarts have non-assisted steering as standard, although you can specify electric assistance for £200. Don’t. The standard set-up is heavyish at very low speeds but is otherwise excellent, helping you to instinctively correct deviations from bumps or crosswinds.The Brabus certainly has more grip and more attitude than lesser Smarts, but its bigger wheels and stiffer suspension mean it’s also less fluid on British roads. It’s still great fun flicking up and down the ’box, judging the perfect turn-in speed and then bringing in that vocal turbo at the apex, but I can’t help thinking that with a Smart less really is more. At £13,520 it’s hard to take the Brabus seriously. But then I don’t suppose you’re really meant to… More SMART FORTWO BRABUS: Car Reviews, Long Term Tests: Smart Fortwo BrabusCar Reviews, Long Term Tests: Smart Fortwo BrabusCar Reviews, Long Term Tests: Smart Fortwo BrabusCar Reviews, Long Term Tests: Smart Fortwo Brabus Related Index Pages Smart Smart fortwo Click here and get 3 issues for just £1!For more performance car news and reviews, subscribe to evo magazine. < Previous Next > 0 Comments Bookmark this post with: More CAR REVIEWS evo Car Reviews Long Term Tests Citroen DS3 R reviewElectric Nemesis reviewNew Stratos supercar reviewDriven: Audi quattro ConceptNew BMW X3 reviewPorsche 911 Carrera GTS reviewSeat Ibiza reviewSee all evo Car Reviews Renault Clio WilliamsFord Fiesta Zetec SRadical Clubsport 1100Radical Clubsport 1100Infiniti G37S CoupeFord Fiesta Zetec SRenault Clio WilliamsSee all Long Term Tests Car Group Tests Audi R8 Spyder v supercar rivalsCitroen DS3 v hot hatch rivalsAston Martin Rapide v rivals370Z Roadster v its rivalsIbiza Cupra V Clio 200 CupMega hatch group testECOTY 2009See all Car Group Tests Advertisement Pictures EMAIL TO A FRIEND PRINT THIS evo RATING Telling people you own a Brabus People realising it’s not a 720bhp S-Class evo SPECIFICATIONS Engine: In-line 3-cyl, 999cc, turbo Max power: 97bhp @ 5500rpm Max torque: 104lb ft @ 3500rpm 0 - 60mph: 9.9sec (claimed) Top speed: 95mph (limited) On Sale: January 2008 SPONSORED LINKS Company Website | Media Information | Contact Us | Privacy Notice | Subs InfoOur Other Websites: The First Post | Auto Express | Custom PC | IT Pro | IT Pro India | MacUser | Men's Fitness | Micro Mart | PC Pro | bit-tech | Know Your Mobile | Octane | Expert Reviews | Channel Pro | Know Your Cell | Know Your Mobile India | iGizmo | Digital SLR Photography | Den of Geek | The Week | Computer Shopper | Dennis Communications | Magazines | Mobile Phone Deals | Competitions | Health & Fitness | CarBuyer © 2010 Dennis Publishing Limited.

Expert Rating: If you want a Smart with attitude, you need to break out the Brabus catalogue. Andy Enright reportsFor most, Brabus is associated with massively powerful Mercedes limousines. Captains of European industry sit in the back and are swept across featureless autobahns at speeds more akin to private aviation than wheeled transport. Fortunately for us, we can now get the Brabus touch on less than Euro commissioner salaries in the form of the Smart ForTwo Brabus, a citycar with real attitude.The 1.0-litre powerplant has been massaged to give a full 98bhp, up from the 84bhp offered by the turbo model in the standard range or the 61 or 71bhp options served up by more humble Smart ForTwos. This is enough to thrust the shoebox sized car to 60mph in a smidgeon under ten seconds, around two seconds faster than the Brabus version of the first generation ForTwo. It's also feels surprisingly quick, despite the gearbox remaining a little dull-witted off the mark and is more than enough to give other city motorists the humiliating view of your blunt back end. That said, there's no way they'll mistake the Brabus model for a common or garden Smart variety. A number of body styling features distinguish the Brabus version including lovely Brabus alloy wheels, a deeper front spoiler and rear valance, plus a sports exhaust and heat shield.The effect of these styling touches is to bring the car even lower to the ground, giving the optical appearance of a rather rapidly moving block. Otherwise, it's the usual Smart recipe - albeit a rather expensive one. The coupe is priced at £13,525 (around £1,200 more than the MK1 equivalent) with the cabrio weighing in at around £2,000 more. This is comparable to cars like a nicely specified MINI Cooper or one of the plushest Fiat 500s, both vehicles with their own dollop of style and a good deal more day to day practicality than the little Smart. The Fortwo has its own very individual street presence however - and of course it's smaller for mopre convenient urban use: try parking a MINI or a Fiat 500 at a 90-degree angle to the pavement. On second thoughts, don't. As with all smart models, the Brabus features standard-fit Electronic Stability Control Programme (ESP): basically, if you get the car out of shape, the electronics will automatically use throttle and brake inputs to correct the situation. And this Brabus version is plenty quick enough to get into quite a situation should you try: 96mph on the flat will see this Smart easily keeping up with the cut and thrust of typical British motorway traffic. Strangely, it's in the city that the smart feels a little clumsy. Yes, it is ridiculously easy to park, but the clutch take up in stop/start traffic is rather severe and you'll dread negotiating speed humps. Even at low speeds the lurch feels pretty nauseating."It's the usual Smart recipe - albeit a rather expensive one"If you owned one of the original Fortwo models and haven't tried the latest one, you'll find that it's a little larger than before, having swelled almost 20cm in length and 4.3cm in width. The track and the wheelbase have also been stretched but the majority of the length has been imposed upon the company by new pedestrian crash legislation. Space inside was always pretty good for two adults (if not their baggage), but the latest car is better still. Somewhat unusually, the passenger seat is mounted 15cm further back than the driver's seat so that shoulder room can be maximised. Smart claims that passengers have an additional three centimetres of elbow room compared to the old car which never felt small even for taller people. Luggage room has also usefully increased from 150 to 220 litres. The car's face looks a little different, with projector lights and a smiling grille aperture, while the side reveals a slimmer aspect to the tridion safety cell in the sill and door area. The door handles have also been rotated around ninety degrees for ease of use. The rear wings are more contoured and the rear window has more slope to it than before. Four instead of six rear lights are now apparent, the fog light and reversing lights now slotted beneath the brake lights and indicator composite units. There aren't too many cars that can beat a Fortwo in terms of cost of ownership. The key thing driving down the pence per mile figure is the residual value of a used example, and though Brabus variants aren't the best in the range in this regard, the latest model still looks set to better its predecessor in terms of used desirability. Then there's the fuel economy. Granted, Fortwos don't tend to soak up big mileages but they are often used in cities where many conventional cars return lousy fuel consumption figures. Expect a combined figure of about 55mpg from this car. This model will also emit just 124g/km of carbon dioxide, making it one of the cleaner cars on sale and therefore very attractive if one is using the car in congestion charging zones. Insurance costs are driven down by the Fortwo's ease of repair, the elastic plastic body panels being capable of shrugging off typical parking knocks. The panels are flexible and the colour is deep moulded in, so superficial scratches are hard to spot. It also means that a more seriously damaged panel can be replaced inexpensively without need for costly and time-consuming repainting. If they were priced more accessibly, there would be a quite a few reasons to recommend the Brabus smart models but the stratospheric asking prices relegate them to the ranks of expensive curios. The novelty wearing off one of these is a rather costly sound.Facts At A Glance CAR: Smart Fortwo Brabus PRICE: £13,525-£15,475 - on the road INSURANCE GROUP: 8 CO2 EMISSIONS: 124g/km PERFORMANCE: 0-60mph 9.9s / Max Speed 95mph FUEL CONSUMPTION: (urban) 43.5mpg / (extra urban) 64.2mpg / (combined) 54.3mpg STANDARD SAFETY FEATURES: Twin front airbags, ABS, Trustplus, ESP WILL IT FIT IN YOUR GARAGE?: Length/Width/Heightmm 2695/1559/1542mm Build Comfort Depreciation Economy Equipment Handling Insurance Performance Styling Value Tuesday May 13 Send by Messenger Email this article Print ADVERTISEMENT if(window.yzq_d==null)window.yzq_d=new Object(); window.yzq_d['JvvEP1f4eEk-']='&U=13o671han%2fN%3dJvvEP1f4eEk-%2fC%3d200101456.201942216.203232434.201252045%2fD%3dLREC%2fB%3d200784458%2fV%3d1'; Car Videos Paris Motor Show See the world's newest carsbefore they hit the road.
