Detailed analysis of the smart forfour passion 66 kW (90 CV) twinamic · 90 CV (2015-2018)
General description
The 2015 Smart Forfour, in its Passion 66 kW (90 hp) twinamic version, is presented as an urban proposal with a distinctive touch. This 5-door, rear-engine model, priced at €15,401, seeks to conquer those who value agility and efficiency in the city, without sacrificing modern design and a particular driving experience.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel of the Smart Forfour, the feeling of agility is immediate. Its 90 hp engine, combined with the automatic dual-clutch transmission, offers a lively response in urban traffic. The speed-sensitive electric power steering facilitates maneuvers in tight spaces, making every turn a pleasure. The suspension, McPherson type at the front and De Dion rigid axle at the rear, filters asphalt irregularities with solvency, although without reaching the smoothness of larger sedans. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 11.9 seconds and a top speed of 165 km/h show that, despite its size, it does not lack verve for interurban getaways. The combined consumption of 4.2 l/100km is a strong point, inviting you to enjoy every journey without worrying about refueling.
Design and aesthetics
The design of the Smart Forfour is unmistakably Smart, but with the added practicality of five doors. Its compact dimensions (3495 mm long, 1665 mm wide and 1554 mm high) make it ideal for the city. The exterior aesthetic is characterized by modern lines and a silhouette that conveys dynamism. Inside, the Passion version offers a youthful and functional atmosphere, with materials that, without being luxurious, are pleasant to the touch and sight. The arrangement of the elements is intuitive, and despite its size, the cabin is well utilized for four occupants, although the 185-liter trunk is somewhat limited for long trips.
Technology and features
This Smart Forfour incorporates technology designed for efficiency and comfort. Its 898 cc gasoline engine, with three cylinders, indirect injection, turbo and intercooler, is an example of compact and powerful engineering. The 6-speed twinamic automatic transmission, with dual clutch, ensures smooth and fast gear changes. The Stop&Start system helps reduce consumption and emissions in urban environments. In terms of safety, it has ventilated front disc brakes and rear drum brakes, and electric power steering that improves maneuverability. Rear-wheel drive is a distinctive feature that gives it a particular dynamic behavior.
Competition
In the urban segment, the Smart Forfour competes with models such as the Renault Twingo (with which it shares a platform), the Fiat 500, the Volkswagen Up! or the Hyundai i10. Compared to them, the Forfour stands out for its bolder design, its rear engine and rear-wheel drive configuration, and the exclusivity of the Smart brand. However, some rivals may offer a slightly larger trunk or a more adjusted starting price, although few match its turning radius of 8.65 meters, an undeniable advantage in the urban jungle.
Conclusion
The 2015 Smart Forfour 66 kW (90 hp) twinamic is a car that captivates with its agility, charismatic design, and efficiency. It is the perfect choice for those looking for an urban vehicle with personality, easy to park, and with low consumption. While the trunk space is limited, its four seats and dynamic behavior make it a very attractive option for daily city life and occasional getaways. It is a car that will make you smile at every traffic light and make your life easier when parking.
