Mercedes-Benz is known for its luxury and performance. For this reason, it keeps its name out of the Smart lineup of cars, but it is not completely removed from the brand thanks to BRABUS. The 2017 BRABUS Xclusive Smart Fortwo offers more than 100 horsepower and weighs just over 2,000 pounds. Now, this is still quite a bit heavier than a motorcycle, but light enough to get the car up to 100 miles per hour! Unfortunately, it won’t be available in the United States this year, but that doesn’t mean it won’t be available in the future!
The difference between the Xclusive version and the base Smart Fortwo is half performance and half visual upgrades that make the car look faster. On the performance end, the suspension and the engine are specially tuned to help the car accelerate, corner, and stop faster than the normal version. It has 20 more horsepower and 25 more lb-ft of torque, which isn’t enough to raise your blood pressure like the C-Class or the S-Class Brabus Xclusive cars, but it does help a lot with performance.
Despite the powerful 1.0L turbocharged 3-cylinder engine and the sport suspension, the BRABUS Xclusive Smart Fortwo still needs 9.5 seconds to get to 60 miles per hour from a stop. This means it is significantly slower than every other car on the road, but let’s not forget about the luxury!
For an extra $3,000, the BRABUS Smart Fortwo can be outfitted with an equipment package that makes it look less like an AMC Gremlin. A lot less. With the package, you get a ton of Brabus badging, which looks good on any car, sports seats, and a new instrument cluster. All we know for sure is that we want it!
