2025 Smart 1
What Is It?
Blending compact dimensions with serious electric performance, the 2025 Smart 1 is a fully electric hatchback with seating for five and a premium price tag of AED 149,400. It targets drivers who want the ease of a city-sized car but with strong power, usable range and modern tech, backed by a 3-year / 100,000 km warranty.
Design & Exterior
The 2025 Smart 1 takes the traditional hatchback shape and gives it a modern EV twist, prioritising aerodynamics and clean surfacing. Its proportions are geared towards urban agility, making it easy to manoeuvre and park in tight city spaces while still offering space for five occupants. The electric powertrain allows for a short front overhang, giving it a more contemporary stance compared with conventional petrol hatchbacks.
Interior & Comfort
Inside, the Smart 1 is designed as a five-seat everyday car, offering the practicality needed for small families or couples who regularly carry passengers. The hatchback layout helps with easy access to the rear and flexible usage of the cabin. Comfort is aided by the automatic transmission, which removes the hassle of gear changes in stop-start traffic, and the electric drivetrain should contribute to a quieter drive compared with traditional combustion engines.
Performance & Engine
As a fully electric (BEV) model, the Smart 1 delivers 268 hp and a strong 536 Nm of torque, channelled through an automatic transmission. This gives it a brisk 0–100 km/h time of 6.7 seconds and a top speed of 240 km/h, impressive figures for a compact hatchback. The 75.0 kWh battery provides a claimed range of 412 km, giving enough flexibility for daily commuting and longer weekend drives without constant charging stops.
Safety & Tech Features
Specific safety and technology equipment is not listed in the available data, but the core EV hardware and automatic transmission indicate a modern driving experience. As a current-generation electric hatchback, buyers can reasonably expect contemporary cabin tech and driver aids, though exact features are not detailed in the provided information and therefore cannot be confirmed here.
