Price starting from: £9,000

On Sale: Now

Why so Great ? Low emissions – and all the cash savings associated with them

Say hello to the lowest-emitting mass-production car in the world, the Smart Fortwo CDI – and give thanks for last summer’s high fuel prices, which prompted its UK arrival. Although the current fuel price is back to the lowest times, sometimes in the future surely will be up again.

Originally only intended for sale in mainland Europ, the 2009 Smart Fortwo CDI was converted to right-hand drive when the rising price of oil sent city car sales soaring.

2009 Smart Fortwo CDIBuyers will have a choice of the coupe or cabrio version of the recently face-lifted car. Its 86mpg average means it can manage up to 670miles between fills. It’s not just your pocket that will be grateful, either, as it emits only 88g/km of carbon dioxide. The secret is its 799cc diesel unit, linked to a five-speed gearbox that can operate as a manual or automatic. The engine  also has a respectable 44bhp, so it should keep up with city traffic without too much problems. 2009 Smart Fortwo CDI Review.

That’s all for today’s Smart Fortwo 2009. For more info, please keep an eye on our latest posts.
