Efficient, Green and Easy to Park
The Smart car brand was founded in 1994 in Switzerland by Nicolas Hayek, the same man who invented Swatch watches. He aimed to produce a vehicle that would be fuel efficient, environmentally friendly, and easy to park – achieved in 1997 when the car was first unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show. Since then, Mercedes-Benz has taken ownership of smart and has remained popular ever since it was established in the UK in 2008.
