2013 Smart Fortwo Performance and Engine
A Small Engine Built for Smart Driving
Under the rear-mounted hood sits a 1.0-liter three-cylinder engine — small by almost any measure, but perfectly matched to how the Fortwo is meant to be driven. Power routes through a 5-speed automatic transmission with Smart-Shift technology, which allows the driver to manually nudge through gears without a traditional clutch. This setup gives you the convenience of an automatic with just a hint of driver engagement when you want it.
Drive wheels are at the rear, which gives the Fortwo a surprisingly nimble and responsive feel around corners. Real-world fuel economy is one of the Fortwo's strongest selling points — expect ratings that make every fill-up feel almost trivial. For Yakima drivers who spend time on surface streets and in stop-and-go traffic, this engine is in its element.
Smart Fortwo Features and Interior
Compact Cabin, Thoughtfully Designed
The Pure trim is Smart's entry-level configuration, which means a no-nonsense interior focused on the essentials. The cabin fits two occupants comfortably and makes excellent use of its compact footprint. Visibility is excellent thanks to the upright seating position and large glass area, making it easy to judge tight spaces. Controls are simple and intuitive, which makes daily driving genuinely low-stress.
Storage is creative rather than cavernous — you'll find thoughtful cubbies and compartments that make the most of the available space. For a solo commuter or a buyer looking for a second vehicle, the interior does exactly what it needs to do.
Smart Fortwo Reliability and Ownership
What Owners Say About the Fortwo
The Smart Fortwo has a loyal following among urban drivers who appreciate its low running costs and easy maintenance. The 1.0-liter engine is simple in design and generally reliable when serviced regularly. The biggest ownership consideration tends to be the automated manual transmission — it has a characteristic hesitation between gear changes that surprises some new owners but is completely normal for this vehicle. Once you understand the behavior, it becomes second nature.
Parts availability has improved significantly over the years, and independent shops familiar with European small cars can typically handle routine service without issue. With over 122,000 miles on the odometer, a pre-purchase inspection is always a smart step — but buyers who go in informed tend to be very satisfied with long-term ownership costs.
