EV Channels Review
The TFL team is parting ways with their beloved Smart EV, affectionately nicknamed 'Tweety,' and the review highlights its surprising fun factor and practicality as an urban commuter. The vehicle's compact size, rear-wheel-drive dynamics, and quick acceleration (especially after a Steinbauer tune that adds torque and reduces 0-60 times to around 9 seconds) are praised. The reviewer also commends its clever packaging, spacious interior feel despite its small footprint, and analog-style controls. However, the Smart EV's significant drawback is its slow charging speed (barely Level 2 at 3.3 kW), which limits its suitability for long road trips. The firm suspension is also noted as a potential downside for those with rougher roads. Despite these limitations, the reviewer strongly recommends it as a fun, quirky, and capable city car, particularly for first-time EV buyers or those seeking an economical urban runabout.
