Smart is a brand of microcars and superminis based in Böblingen, Germany. It is marketed as the
"smart" in all lower case.
The original idea behind the very short "smart car" is that the vehicle is easy to park. It is short enough to allow it to
be parked "nose-in" where a conventionally sized car would have to parallel park. Its length of 2.5 metres (98.4 in) equals
the width of a truck or a regular parking slot, allowing two or three smarts to park in the same space as one normal car if
parked side-on to the usual parking direction.
The smart Fortwo was introduced in Canada in late 2004. The vehicle has been especially popular for
light errand running for small shops and businesses, with many carrying custom paint jobs or stick-on graphics boldly
advertising the associated product or service.
