What Bitauto Original can guess is that no matter how many reasons you find for yourself to become a smart elf #1 car owner, appearance will always be the one. Ranked first. After all, in the eyes of many people, this is how the smart elf #1 survives, but when you have more contact with it, you will find that , what it can give is far more than this.
Looks small but not small, looks cute and is indeed cute
In my opinion, the Elf #1 is a very successful work. Although it is very different in size from the past two generations of fuel version smart, it is obvious that The designer has found a precise starting point between cuteness and pragmatism. Its 4270mm length is 40mm shorter than the MINI COUNTRYMAN, but its wheelbase is 80mm longer. Sigh: General layout engineers in the electrification era are indeed much happier.
The round shape is very lethal to female friends. At the same time, it can also be said to be a good hand in reducing wind resistance. The wind resistance coefficient of the whole car is 0.29Cd, which is everywhere Round.
The four wheels and four corners seem to be more extreme on this car. Again, the layout characteristics of the new energy platform give more possibilities to the styling of current pure electric vehicles, breaking the traditional aesthetic The innovation of fixed styles will always bring more freshness. At least in my eyes, such elves #1 are indeed cute.
Exquisiteness has always been the trump card for this type of car to win people over, and smart also has a lot of say. After experiencing the successful transformation from traditional fuel vehicles to electric vehicles, today's smart has more ingenuity. The design that was a classic when it debuted will be the same as those works that we once praised. It has stayed in the memory for a long time.
How can you still be called smart if you are not smart?
In my opinion, the interior designers of Elf #1 are also quite "smart" people. They know how to use traditional materials to create a Exquisite and extraordinary texture, the amazing thing is that compared to competing products in the same price range that only focus on stacking materials, the cockpit atmosphere of Elf #1 is better, but if you think about it, it is normal. A smart car and smart People always appear together.
Low Poly Geometric PolylineUI The design does not fall into the cliché. The car system seems to have a different vitality than usual. The considerate little fox voice assistant actually reminds me of " The character in "The Little Prince". What needs to be praised is that the touch buttons for commonly used functions are retained at the bottom of the screen, which is simple and practical.
The metallic air-conditioning doorway shows a completely different style under the rendering of external light and shadow and night atmosphere lights. The designers know how to handle all this. As I said before, they are all smart people.
A clever balance of sport and comfort
Although there is a BRABUS version with more powerful performance, I prefer the comfortable feeling created by the single-motor Elf #1, as well as the tightness and sophistication in control. It is not consistent with its SUV identity, but the chassis tuning has achieved a good balance. I originally thought its shape and design were its biggest selling points, but I didn’t expect that its control capabilities would also impress me.
Compared with the Elf #3, which has a more hard-core driving experience, I think the Elf #1 will be more in line with the preferences of female friends, with a well-behaved and sensible character. It's very clever, you'll know it as soon as you open it.
Write it at the end
smart Elf#1 is a car with a very distinctive personality. Just like its predecessor in the fuel era, it is still fresh in people's minds at a glance. What’s rare is that in today’s era of homogeneous designs, smart Elf #1 still retains the same characteristics that people had when they first knew smart, and as the times change, Evolved to be more refined, more comfortable, and more practical. This is definitely a successful step for the smart brand.
It is never the camera that retains the beauty, but our memories.
