	What's Happening at Smart by Noel Adams
		Smart had never been profitable, so their board met on March 31, 2005 to put together a plan to reach profitability by 2007.
		The Smart Roadster was a stylish open topped sports car that would have slotted nicely into the niche currently dominated by the Mazda Miata, providing a nice entry vehicle for Daimler Chrysler, and doing much to improve their fleet mileage.
		Smart is now left with only two models, the two-seat Smart ForTwo and the four-seat Smart ForFour.

	Smart Forfour Brabus Review, Wintonsworld - 2005
		Smart is introducing the ForFour Brabus, a souped up version of the ForFour, which will whisk you from 0-62 mph (100 km/h) in 6.9 seconds and all the way to 137 mph (221 km/h).
		Smart started life in 1998 with the little two-seater city car now called the Fortwo, then moved on to produce the Smart roadster, and the four-seater, the Forfour.
		Smart might be losing fortunes, but it would cost even more to close it down, and it does provide a crucial bit of ammunition for Mercedes.

	Smart Forfour 1.3 \| Roadtests \| The Australian
		Smart was founded in 1994 as a joint venture between Mercedes-Benz and Swatch, the company that revived the Swiss watch industry by making them out of plastic, selling them cheaply and encouraging people to buy more than one.
		In Hayek's vision, Smart owners would be able to get discounts on train travel or preferential rental rates on large cars for long journeys, as well as cheaper parking for their tiny two-seaters.
		Now, six years later Smart has embraced convention with a front-engined, five-door hatchback that, although it borrows its looks from the distinctive Fortwo city car, is as straightforward under the skin as anything in a mainstream showroom.

	Carpages.ca - 2006 smart forfour Preview
		The fortwo, smart's (the lower case is intentional) first model originally called the City, put the company on the map with its tiny size and unique styling.
		And just in case forfour owners that traded up from their fortwos find the new interior too mainstream, all they need do is look towards the center hub of the two-spoke multi-function steering wheel and see the HUGE smart logo to know they're still part of the smart family.
		In the end the upcoming forfour is destined to carry the unorthodox brand's message to more and more prospective customers, while offering a larger option for current smart owners looking to grow their vehicle in relation to their growing family.

		Based on the existing structure of the Smart ForTwo Cabriolet, the Smart CrossBlade was designed to give a feeling of unbounded freedom to the driver and passenger alike and was described as a "motorcycle on four wheels," eschewing traditional styling (like, say, a roof or a windshield) for a true “wind-in-your-hair” driving experience.
		Smart’s next concept was its Smart ForFour model; a four-door sedan developed in conjunction with Mitsubishi and built in Mitsubishi's New Car plant in the Netherlands and was first introduced to the world in Zürich, Switzerland, on "ForFour Day," June 26, 2003.
		All Smart Cars embody driving enjoyment with a sporty touch, but the Smart ForFour was designed to be the ideal alternative to gas-guzzling, poor performing and lackluster looking cars.

	The Car Enthusiast \| Reviews \| Smart ForFour road test
		The first Smart could be sold as a cleverly packaged city car, but the ForFour has nowhere to hide, staring straight down the barrels of the shotgun that is the cutthroat super-mini market.
		The Smart is completely different to anything else from any angle, anything else apart from another Smart that is. Most models feature a two-colour layout with our test car having the "Tridion" safety cell highlighted in silver, with bright red main panels, which are plastic incidentally.
		Smart's first manual 'box proves to be infinitely more preferable than the sequential auto.

	Smart Forfour Hatchback 1.5 CDi 95bhp Pulse 5dr - Road Test Summary - Autocar Online (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		Although Smart still refers to the exposed structure of the Forfour as a Tridion safety cell, as it does with the Fourtwo, in reality it does the same job as the structural monocoque body of a conventional car.
		Although the Forfour shares the same basic suspension layout as the Mitsubishi, Smart have tuned the ForFour with a greater emphasis on driver enjoyment.
		The Forfour is Smart's most conventional car yet, and if its design flourishes closely link it to the rest of the range, some of those details could be considered a conceit.

	2005 Smart ForFour - Road Test & Review - Automobile Magazine
		Smart, Mercedes-Benz's hip, minicar brand launched in 1994, has branched out from its initial, pod-like, two-seater (famous for its ability to park nose in to a curb), and added a targa-topped Roadster and the four-door ForFour; we recently had a chance to drive the latter in Spain.
		All Smarts are small to American eyes, but whereas the original Smart ForTwo looks freakishly small even in Europe, the ForFour is a standard B-class car over there-one size down from a VW Golf, but six inches longer than a Mini Cooper.
		Smart suspended indefinitely development on the ForMore small SUV, the model that was supposed to bring the brand to the U.S. We didn't think another me-too small SUV was so smart anyhow.

		Smart is not entirely abandoning its eccentricities with the aptly-named Forfour, though.
		Smart has managed to preserve a family look by painting the visible parts of the Forfour’s metal structure a different colour to the plastic doors, wings, bonnet, roof and tailgate, and through the style of the lights.
		The Smart is smaller than the Colt in every dimension bar wheelbase, but not significantly lighter.

	Smart ForFour by Kyosho
		I bought this model of the ForFour (by Kyosho) on the Smart stand at the 2004 British motor show where there were several of the new ForFours on display.
		Mercedes through an arrangement with Mitsubishi had developed the ForFour alongside the new for 2003 Mitsubishi Colt and both were built in the Netherlands at the NedCar factory (which was formerly owned by Volvo who were subsequently bought out by Mitsubishi).
		Despite it's outlandish looks, the ForFour was a totally conventional four cylindered front wheel drive hatchback but which cost more than similarly sized cars (including it's sister car the new Colt) thanks to the "cachet" of the Smart brand.

	The Driving Woman - Fortwo? Forfour? What's the Best Way to Smarten Up?
		Smart is a division of DaimlerChrysler (DCX) and the fortwo has been on sale in Europe for years, along with a larger Smart called the forfour that's about the size of a Scion xA or Honda Fit.
		In fact, Smart planned to build an SUV version of it called the formore, but that project was cancelled.
		Smart and DCX would be wise to keep the competition in mind when launching the new fortwo in the U.S. It needs to be cute, very cute, at least as cute as the next-gen Mini.
