Font size:
The smart fortwo cdi is maintaining its top position among the greenest cars with a combustion engine, now emitting just 86 g/km of CO2 – less than all its competitors.
A high level of environmental friendliness is an innate characteristic of the successful smart fortwo cult car.The diesel model - the smart fortwo cdi - always underlined this claim with carbon dioxide emissions of just 88 grams per kilometer, the lowest figure worldwide for cars with a combustion engine.
Now the smart fortwo is setting a new record with emissions of just 86 g/km or consumption of 3.3 liters of diesel per 100 kilometers (71.3 mpg US) in the manual “softip” mode which means that it keeps its title of CO2 champion.

The smart engineers have been able to improve the smart fortwo cdi's fuel consumption and CO2 emissions in the course of continuous further development. The measures included an improvement in the vehicle’s aerodynamics. A reduction in ride height by seven millimeters, for example, resulted in improved rolling resistance characteristics.
