I think the video says all there needs to be said why Mercedes DIDNT put that engine in the Smart.
Imagine how many accidents there would have been.......and dont even think what the insurance costs would be.
Surely the whole premis of the Smart is cheap, reliable town motoring. Its not about being able to do wheelies or doughnuts in your local Asda car park on a Sunday evening.
I mean you could put a V8 in a Reliant Robin but what does that prove?
I have nothing against people wanting to drive fast cars and enjoying themselves, but I would not want to do 120mph in a car with a wheelbase no longer than a toy pedal car.
