Detailed analysis of the smart fortwo coupé 52 pulse · 71 CV (2008)
General description
The 2007 Smart Fortwo Coupé, in its 52 Pulse version, is presented as an ingenious and compact urban solution. With a price of €10,950, this small two-seater vehicle with 71 HP, powered by gasoline, promises agility and efficiency in the city environment. Its distinctive design and reduced dimensions make it an ideal car for those seeking ease of parking and contained consumption, without giving up a touch of personality.
Driving experience
Behind the wheel of the Smart Fortwo Coupé, the predominant sensation is one of surprising agility. Its 71 HP, combined with a weight of only 825 kg, allow it to move freely in urban traffic. The steering, although not assisted in this version, offers a direct response that, together with its tiny size, facilitates maneuvers in reduced spaces. The acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 13.3 seconds is not dazzling, but sufficient for the city. The maximum speed of 145 km/h makes it suitable for short interurban journeys, although its natural habitat is the city. The combined consumption of 4.7 l/100km is a strong point, inviting economical and carefree driving.
Design and aesthetics
The design of the Smart Fortwo Coupé is unmistakable and timeless. Its compact lines and its two-volume silhouette, with a length of just 2695 mm, make it stand out in any parking lot. The coupé body gives it a sporty and youthful air, while details such as the 15-inch wheels (175/55 R15 front and 195/50 R15 rear) reinforce its character. The interior, although small, is intelligently designed to maximize space and functionality, offering a 220-liter trunk, surprising for its dimensions. It is a car that, despite the years, still turns heads for its originality.
Technology and features
In the 2007 Smart Fortwo Coupé, technology focuses on efficiency and functionality. Its 999 cc gasoline engine, with 3 cylinders and 4 valves per cylinder, incorporates indirect injection and an aluminum block and cylinder head, seeking lightness and performance. The 5-speed manual transmission, combined with rear-wheel drive, offers a simple and direct driving experience. Although it lacks the electronic sophistication of more modern models, its technology is aimed at offering reliable and economical transport. The McPherson front suspension and the rigid De Dion rear axle, along with front disc brakes and rear drum brakes, guarantee safe and predictable behavior.
Competition
In its segment, the 2007 Smart Fortwo Coupé faced few direct rivals in terms of size and concept. Vehicles such as the Toyota iQ, although later, or the Citroën C1/Peugeot 107/Toyota Aygo, offered a compact alternative, but with four seats. The Fortwo is distinguished by its strict two-seater configuration and its radically urban approach. Its main competition lay in the ability of other small cars to offer more versatility, although none matched its ease of parking in the smallest spaces in the city.
Conclusion
The 2007 Smart Fortwo Coupé 52 Pulse is much more than just a car; it is a statement of intent. Its size, agility, and efficiency make it the perfect companion for urban life, offering unparalleled freedom of movement. Although its performance is not breathtaking and its interior space is limited to two occupants, its charm lies precisely in its uniqueness and the joy it conveys when driving. It is a car that, despite the years, remains an intelligent and emotional option for those seeking a practical, economical, and highly personal vehicle.
