Smart cars have long been synonymous with small size, but the new Smart #5 pushes the boundaries. This concept SUV, which promises to revolutionize the perception of the Smart brand, will go into production later this year, or at least in 2025. It is designed as a mid-size SUV that is not only bigger, but also more powerful and versatile than ever before. So this is the Smart #5 2025.
A first look at the Smart #5 2025 reveals that it is no ordinary Smart. With a length of more than 4.4 meters (174.8 inches) and a robust, boxy design, this model resembles a futuristic version of the Mercedes GLB, with added off-road capabilities. It's equipped with a raised suspension, all-terrain tires, thick skid plates, and even a lift strut that's typical of Jeep Wranglers and Ford Broncos.
The interior of the Smart #5 is just as impressive. It is equipped with advanced technology, including a triple screen that combines digital gauges and two large OLED screens for infotainment and additional functions. The seats offer massages, ventilation and even special relaxation positions known as “zero-gravity”.
In terms of performance, the Smart #5 does not skimp. It is powered by two electric motors that enable four-wheel drive, and its battery with a capacity of more than 100 kWh promises a range of more than 550 kilometers (342 miles) per charge according to the WLTP standard. With 800-volt technology, it also enables fast charging - from 10 to 80 percent in just 15 minutes.
The history of the Smart brand has always been associated with innovations in compact dimensions, and with this model Smart shows that it is ready to take big steps. Formerly part of Mercedes-Benz, but now in partnership with Geely, the Smart #5 shows how the brand is changing and adapting to new markets and trends.
The Smart #5 isn't just bigger; it is bolder, stronger and more innovative. This is a vehicle that can push the boundaries in the world of electric vehicles, bringing freshness and novelty and exciting adventure to everyday driving. We are excitedly awaiting the official unveiling, which is sure to attract the attention of car and technology enthusiasts later this year. With its versatility and advanced technologies, the Smart #5 is not only a step forward for the brand, but for the entire electric vehicle industry. At the moment, the car is only a concept, but we are sure that this concept is very close to the production itself, which we can expect in 2025.
