EV Channels Review
The 2018 Smart EQ ForTwo is reviewed as a fun, nippy city car with excellent handling and a surprisingly spacious interior for its size. Its compact dimensions and tight turning circle make it ideal for urban environments and easy parking. The upgraded 22kW onboard charger is a significant improvement, addressing previous range anxiety for longer trips. However, the review highlights several drawbacks: limited range (60-70 miles in current conditions), excessive road noise, a basic infotainment system with a retro speedometer display, and a high list price of over £23,000. While praised for its efficiency and maneuverability, the consensus is that the negatives, particularly the price and noise, make it a niche product, suggesting a used model or a larger EV might be a better value proposition for most buyers.
