Mercedes Fortwo Is Tiny, Cheap, and Deadly

Fortwo Car

SmartUSA has just announced that two Mercedes produced “smart fortwo” models will be available in the US for under $12k. That, combined with its miniscule 8.8-ft length and 5.1-ft height, make it one of the smallest, cheapest cars around. The base model doesn’t have much in the way of features ( not even air conditioning ), but there are a wide range of price customizations available, topping out at around $16,590 for a fully loaded vehicle.

The fortwo will also get a whopping 40+mpg fuel efficiency and a top speed of 90 mph - which makes it a very appealing choice for those looking to save a few bucks at the pump. Plus it has a pretty cool looking design. I would keep both hands on the wheel though. With a car this tiny, hitting a grocery cart in a parking lot could end up being a fatal wreck. — Sean Fallon
