Smart ForTwo and ForFour:  We are something more than a month and a half for the start of the 2012 Paris Motor Show, which will begin on September 29. That proximity makes that we have the confirmation of the different models will be presented at the Paris event, among which will be the new generation of Smart ForTwo and ForFour Smart. Two cars will face a review that has already attracted considerable interest because of the significant changes that offer. This evolution will still take some time to get to our roads.

The list of innovations that we will meet at the 2012 Paris Motor Show is already wide enough for us not to miss any detail of what will happen in the French capital at the end of September. There we meet the next generation of Volkswagen Golf, the new Mitsubishi Mirage or the Peugeot HR1, models that look along with new products for Smart, which is likely to come in the form of Concept Car

These two proposals have marked the development of the new Smart ForTwo, which will feature new engines and will be manufactured on a new platform.

According to those information’s, it is precisely within this Smart ForTwo more noticeable where the partnership with Renault as the French firm has been involved from the outset in the design and development of this new platform. A new platform that will be three types of bodywork such as the standard coupe and convertibles, and up to five different equipment options for the third generation of one of the most recognizable cars in the automobile market.

For now, we have little more about him than any image of their first demos and why the announcement of his arrival in production occurred already in 2010 by one of the top managers of the firm.

However, after two years since that comment, are not yet finalized the details about the new developments in the Smart ForFour.
