    I drive a smart 450, and i drive 110/120 kmph on the highway and have no problems with driving that speed. Only need to hold the steering wheel thight when its very windy outside.

      Same here, I use the highway almost everyday and I drive it (Smart fortwo 450 passion) to the max, 110/120kph. On windy days I drive about 60kph max. The catch here is you must know what you're doing and must be an experienced driver to max this vehicle. Both hands on steering after shifing gears if yours does not have auto mode,I also have a few mods done. lowered suspension using coil overs for better aerodynamics and stability. I use wider tires on stock alloy rims (195/55/50) both back and front.

    I am thinking about buying a Smart like that. I live in a city, so it'd be used mostly as a city car, whilst we rarely wander outside the city. However, do you reckon it's safe to drive 90-100kph with it? Or I shouldn't even try?

    • @SlowFord
      @SlowFord  Před 3 lety +6

      My recommendation is to not go over 80-90km/h, it feels very insecure. Sweet spot for this car will be around 50-70 km/h. Just don't ever try to drive it on the highway. But I can suggest buying instead a 2005 ford fiesta 1.3. You can check the video on my channel. It is really safe to drive it with 130-150 km/h. And they are really cheap to buy and maintain. And it comes in 4 doors with 5 seats. ✌️

      once upon a time drove smart fortwo in russia on highway in winter with huge wheel tracks on 120 kph... feels like an edge for this car cause corners and line changing on this speed requires high precision steering and good weight balance feeling.
