Geneva World Premier Preview: The Smart ForTwo BRABUS And BRABUS Xclusive |
|
When the Geneva Motor Show kicks off next month, fans of the new smart
fortwo will have two additional models to lust after: the smart fortwo
BRABUS and the smart fortwo BRABUS Xclusive. As I'm sure you can already
guess, both models feature a host of performance and cosmetic upgrades,
all of which aim to increase the mini-car's sporty appeal while still
maintaining its excellent fuel consumption. First up is the smart fortwo
BRABUS. Featuring a three-cylinder, 72kW (98 bhp) petrol engine, the smart
fortwo is a sprightly little beast, capable of accelerating from 0-62 mph
in just under 10 seconds and achieving an electronically limited top speed
of 96 mph. Cosmetically, changes over its non-Brabus counterpart include
BRABUS Monoblock VI alloy wheels, wider wheel arches and various BRABUS-
branded interior components; while further upgrades include a sport
exhaust system and lowered, firmer suspension. Read more
