Smart recently unveiled its first fully electric C-segment SUV, the #5, which has hit the road for initial press testing.
The smart #5 is the brand’s first fully electric SUV in the C-segment. Designed for both urban and off-road use, it combines modern technologies, road performance, and premium comfort.
The model is available in six trims, with a starting price set at 46,600 euros for the Pro version and going up to 61,600 euros for the high-end BRABUS version. Starting from the Pro+ trim, the vehicle is equipped with a 100 kWh battery using Lithium Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NCM) technology. Thanks to its 800-volt electric architecture, the smart #5 can be charged from 10 to 80% in just 18 minutes with a charging power of up to 400 kW, under optimal conditions.
A Smart designed to escape the cities
The smart #5 also stands out for its versatility. It offers five off-road driving modes: Adaptive, Sand, Snow, Mud, and Rock. It can tackle uneven terrain with a maximum ground clearance of 197 mm and a fording capability of 500 mm. Its double wishbone suspension at the front ensures a stable and comfortable ride, even on difficult roads.
Lighting is provided by CyberSparksLED+ matrix technology headlights, which adapt to each driving situation to ensure good visibility.
Inside, the smart #5 integrates numerous technologies. It features a 25.6-inch augmented reality head-up display, a 10.25-inch digital dashboard, and two 13-inch OLED screens for the driver and passenger. The smart OS 2.0 operating system is powered by an AMD V2000 chip and allows smooth access to vehicle functions, including intelligent guidance for charging.
Voice control, assisted by artificial intelligence, is accompanied by an avatar named “Leo” for hands-free control of functions. Finally, the Sennheiser Signature audio system, with 20 speakers and Dolby Atmos rendering, offers an immersive and customizable sound experience, with a maximum power of 1,190 watts.
