smart fortwo
The Smart Fortwo was one the very first city cars to reach Canadian shores, and its European styling is set off by its removable - and swappable - plastic body panels. The Smart Fortwo only seats two passengers, but it can be had in both hatchback and convertible editions. All models feature a 1.0-liter, three-cylinder engine that generates 70 horses and 68 lb-ft of twist, and a five-speed automated manual transmission sends that output to the vehicle's front wheels.
