Uploaded 6 months ago by DrivenMad

Video Summary

Here is the requested summary of the YouTube video:
- This is a review of the Smart #1. The reviewers have driven it 8,000 kilometers.
- It has four doors, more space, and a longer range than the Mini it replaced.
- An 800-kilometer journey was completed in one day.
- The key is a unique design.
- It has been purchased for its space, decent range, reasonable charging speed, heated seats, a heated steering wheel, and quality.
- The warranty is poor.
- The car is considered to look good, particularly in red.
- Automatic headlights seem to work well without blinding other drivers.
- The door handles are not preferred, but they function.
- The trunk is large compared to the Mini. The rubber mat is high quality. There is under-floor storage. It has an electric tailgate.
- The driver preferred the Mini over the Smart, for it's smaller profile.
- Apple CarPlay is crisp and fast, but basic functions, such as AC and heated seats, are not immediately available once connected.
- The “driving nannies” are difficult to turn off while the vehicle is moving.
- The electric vehicle will drain the battery, if the vehicle isn't locked after it has been stopped.
- There's "overlooked” quality with excellent handling, the overall performance is far more than one might need.
