The Smart "fortwo" has been drawing curious crowds at the 2007 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, which opened to the press Sunday, with the words "Coming to the USA in 2008" emblazoned on its stand.
Part of the Mercedes-Benz division of German-US company DaimlerChrysler AG, the tiny car has become a familiar sight on Europe's congested roads since it was launched in 1998, although the project has yet to make a profit.
But in the United States, proud home to gas-guzzling trucks and sport utility vehicles (SUVs), the notion that such a car might prove a hit seemed laughable until only recently. |
