Can the exhaust of a smart car be modified at will?
2 Answers
smart exhaust cannot be modified at will. Taking the smart-sharpread as an example, here is a detailed introduction to the smart-sharpread: 1. Appearance: Equipped with 15-inch alloy wheels with wide tire sizes, front tire size is 175/55R15, and rear tire size is 195/50R15. 2. Configuration: Features an integrated LCD display for navigation and multimedia entertainment system, heated seats, heated steering wheel, and other configurations. 3. Power: Equipped with 1.0L and 1.0T engines, with maximum power outputs of 70 horsepower and 84 horsepower respectively.
As someone who loves tinkering with cars, I have to say modifying a Smart's exhaust system shouldn't be done casually—it can lead to a bunch of headaches. I modified the exhaust on my own car, opting for high-performance parts to get that cool sound, but ended up with resonance noise that made a constant droning sound while driving, literally hurting my ears. The aftermarket exhaust didn’t match the original setup, and instead of gaining power, fuel efficiency dropped slightly. The worst part? Failing emissions during the annual inspection and having to revert the mods, wasting money. The key is to buy certified products and have them installed and tuned by professionals to avoid safety hazards like exhaust leaks. With a Smart’s compact space, careless modifications can easily damage other components, leading to hefty maintenance costs later. Modifying an exhaust isn’t as simple as grocery shopping—check local regulations first to avoid pitfalls.
