jwight is correct. All new smart models come with the 48 month/50k warranty. For more details check out our website: http://www.smartusa.com/warranty/. ;

Will four years be enough?

That little bird is way behind the times - smart USA extended the warranty on remaining 2011 models and all 2012 models now come with the standard M-B USA 4years/50K miles warranty. I'm sure they will consider retroactively extending that…

Too bad they won't extend the warranty period on the 08-11 model years to 4 year 50k.

4 year, 50,000 mile factory warranty

A little birdie told me that Mercedes will soon give new Smarts their standard 4 year, 50,000 mile warranty...This is only possible because the Smart is a sturdy car and greedy Roger Penske is no longer the importer...This will negate the need for and expense of an aftermarket extended warranty...See More

Robert Stout replied to Barb Olivarez's discussion 'Prices on checkups'

I just had my 20,000 routine maintenance done at my Roger Penske Mercedes based Smart dealership in Chandler , AZ...$448.80 seems a little steep for a glorified oil change, especially using the cheaper substitute 5W40 synthetic motor…

Sales restricted to smart people only, who don't spend their life sniveling about not buying a Toyota...

Robert Stout replied to jwight's discussion 'smart tops 50 thousand total sales in the US'

When it becomes widely known that the Smart is designed and sold by Mercedes, has the lowest five year cost of ownership of all cars, and the best real world gas mileage of any non-hybrid car, even Consumers Reports will take a fresh look at…

Reed Lewis replied to Robert Stout's discussion 'Smart pickup "truck"'

Actually Subaru had the BRAT (which stood for Bi-drive Recreational All-terrain Transporter) which was a two seater vehicle like the Chevrolet El Camino. I know of someone who still owns one, and uses it to transport stuff all the time. …

Gary Bryers replied to Robert Stout's discussion 'Smart pickup "truck"'

Subaru, also, had a small pickup, called the Brat. Was, for the most part, useless, when it couldn't haul any more than the enclosed station wagons, and couldn't seat as many as a station wagon. I do not believe this will find much…

If recession and unemployment continue (and the way Gov't keeps spending, that is a near-certainty), large and/or expensive vehicles will lose their luster in the US, and smaller, more efficient (and, I would hope, less-expensive to operate)…

I discount the possibility of an alien invasion (other than by illegals) , But an asteroid hit within a million years is a certainty...

Don't forget the earth getting hit by an asteroid or the alien invasion scenarios - they'll definitely drive up gas prices. :D

Gas price certainly has some relationship to micro/mini car sales. Right now average US gas prices are: Regular $3.221 Midgrade $3.366 Premium…

Micro cars thrive anyplace that gas is over $5.00 a gallon...Even in America..

jwight replied to Robert Stout's discussion 'Explosion of micro-cars in Europe'

Micro cars have been "exploding" in Europe since about the the time of the Austin A40 and the original Fiat 500. It's great that the Europeans have supported that class of car over the years and continue to refine it by introducing…

I sat in a fiat 500 at a car show...It felt very cramped in the front seat, unlike the roomy feel of my Smart...

Robert Ricewasser replied to Robert Stout's discussion 'Smart pickup "truck"'

For those of you who remember the Crosley, they had a coupe, a cabriolet, a station wagon, a pick-up, and the Hotshot sort of sports car.

Thanks
