Depending on the price, I would.

I wonder if it is AWD? I guess not.

Saw to smart cars on the way to work this morning on the toll road.

Heh, are gas prices are now as high as Europe and some Asian countries so little tiny vehicles like these are getting more and more popular.

15 minutes for 80% charging is amazing!! I would buy one of these in a heartbeat, but mostly because it's a Subaru. If it were a Yaris, I would reconsider...

Umm, no. I have been both to Europe and to one of the larges growing asian economies in Asia recently, and we are still getting cheap but quality fuel. In greece, they are paying $6/gal on the mainland, and almost $7 on the islands. The prices in India fluctuate wildly depending on location.

We still have some of the lowes gas prices on the planet.

There was an article in R&T stating that the Nissan Versa hatchback w/ the tiny engine was bigger, interior is nicer, more powerful, handled better, got roughly the same gas mileage but was cheaper than the Smart car. Smart car is not looking like a smart deal compared to other small cars in the market.
