Smart Car - Smart Choice


The relatively new "Smart Car" may not look like a safe choice for the highway. However, a multitude of tests have been held deciding whether or not this car is safe; there are many videos of these tests on the internet. These videos show that the Smart Car causes less damage to the car and or wall it is crashing in to, and less damge to the Smart Car itself. According to designers, Smart Car is only 8.2 feet long, less than 5 feet wide; it gets nearly 70 miles to the gallon while driving on the highway. This car is relatively cheap, too, making it one of the most driver friendly cars on the market. On top of all that, the new Smart Car has the cool, sleek style of a sports car, and you can almost park two of them into a single parking space. It has also been dubbed "Eco-Friendly" by GreenPeace. Altogether, the Smart Car may be the single most "relative" car of the decade.
