Equipment and prices of the smart #3
Already from the presentation 2 Months ago we know the technical specs: The vehicle is a bit lower, but a bit longer and wider than the #1 (L/W/H/WB: 4400/1844/1556/2785). The #1 has been slightly lengthened to become a #3. But the motors remain the same. The rear-wheel drive variant has 200 kW and the all-wheel drive version with BRABUS drive comes with 315 kW. smart China themself are mostly showing of how sporty the #3 is.
With the smart #3 the brand gos up in the vehicle segment and is even more luxurious. Apparently there is also a version with a length of 4.5 meters. But what this is or will be is also unclear. It is referred to in homogolation as a "special traction device". Maybe a version with a longer wheelbase, which is something rather popular in China.
Like the #1, the smart #3 has a 66 kWh battery and can charge via the standard AC charger with 22 kW and DC with up to 150 kW. This means that the battery can be charged from 10% to 80% in less than 30 minutes during the quick charge process. Thanks to the better streamlining, the #3 beats the CW value of the #1 of 0.29 and achieves an even better range with its 0.27. A real 350 km should be realistic.
Equipment and prices of the smart #3
After long speculation, there is now clarity about the prices in Europe. The smart #3 is priced as well here as it is in China. Let's start with the basic equipment, the pro+. Which had already turned out to be very good equipment at #1, more about that here.

Special edition for the 25th anniversary of smart
Parallel to the three equipment lines, there is also the smart #3 25th Anniversary Edition for €46,990. It is notable for being highly limited and having "25th Anniversary Edition" badging all over the car. Unfortunately, it is only based on the Premium, but at least has duo leather seats and an exclusive color combination, equipment and rims.
The full report on the 25th Anniversary Edition can be found here. In addition, these days will also come my first report in which I could look at the #3 personally and also try it out for the first time
