Smart ForTwo LightShine

Smart ForTwo LightShine

While many of the world’s top auto makers are showing off new models in Detroit at the 2011 North American International Auto Show, Smart is introducing UK models. A special edition of the all new Smart ForTwo is up and running for dealerships in the United Kingdom. Will this Smart SE make it over to the US? Only time (and sales figures) will tell.

The Smart ForTwo LightShine is a different approach towards the popular ForTwo nameplate, currently available at dealerships globally.

Based on Smart’s coupe, the LightShine features “an exclusive matte green exterior with body-color bumpers, LED daytime running lights and unique ‘Pulse’ alloy wheels.” Inside, there’s navigation (with CD/DVD/SD functionality), a sporty steering wheel, and special floor mats.

Power for the Smart ForTwo LightShine is provided by an 800cc three-cylinder CDI engine that produces 54 horsepower and 96 lb-ft of torque. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 16.8 seconds, before hitting a top speed of 84 miles per hour.
