How many people can a Mercedes-Benz smart accommodate?

Mercedes-Benz smart can only accommodate two people. In terms of body dimensions: The width of the smart fortwo is increased by about 100mm compared to the current model, thereby enhancing the lateral space inside the car and also helping to improve the driving stability of the vehicle. Parameter configuration: The smart fortwo is positioned as a microcar, equipped with two power systems: 0.9T and 1.0L. All models use a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission. The length, width, and height of the car are 2695mm, 1663mm, and 1555mm respectively. The 0.9T turbocharged model has slightly better acceleration and top speed compared to the naturally aspirated 1.0L model. Although the car looks small, it is 'small but complete.' The biggest highlight of this car is its convertible design, though not all models are equipped with it.

I've driven the old two-door Smart, and it truly only fits two people, with just the driver and front passenger seats available. However, the new Smart brings a pleasant surprise—the four-door version now has a backseat that can accommodate two adults, although they might need to tuck their legs a bit. It’s perfectly fine for short trips with friends. Recently, I’ve noticed several four-seat versions in my neighborhood, which are especially convenient for parents picking up and dropping off kids—the backseat is even spacious enough for a child safety seat. Don’t let its size fool you; the trunk can fit a 24-inch suitcase vertically, making it fully capable for weekend grocery runs.

As a mom who often takes kids around, I've researched the space in the Smart four-seater version. After adjusting the driver's seat, there's still a fist's distance between the knees of passengers under 1.7 meters tall and the front seat, but the head may touch the roof. In practice, it's most comfortable with two elementary school kids in the back, with just enough space for backpacks and snacks. Special praise goes to its child safety seat interfaces, which include both ISO and LATCH buckles, making seat installation worry-free. Parking this car is a breeze—it can fit into a 2-meter parking space with ease.

Last week, I test drove the latest Smart #1 and was surprised to find the rear seat can temporarily accommodate three people. The salesperson mentioned the body width has increased by 15 cm, with an almost completely flat floor in the middle. In practice, three women could squeeze in the back for a 5 km ride without complaints, but men might find their shoulders rubbing. It's recommended to use it as a four-seater normally, reserving the fifth seat for emergencies. With the rear seats folded down, the cargo space is twice as large as the previous model, easily accommodating a folded bicycle.
