Not long ago, Smart's new small pure electric SUV product - Genie #1 has just officially debuted overseas. Recently, a group of spy photos of the high-performance version of the suspected smart genie #1 model were exposed on the Internet. It can be seen that the new car is equipped with a more sporty kit, and it is expected to be equipped with dual motors in front and rear, making the new car a powerful "small steel cannon".
In terms of appearance, the vehicle in the spy photo as a whole continues the design language of the previously released Genie #1, and the through-type LED light strip is paired with the glowing headlights, which is very elegant. The new car has two flat air intake openings in front of the cover, and the smart English LOGO is also adjusted to black. At the same time, two black horizontal trim strips were added to the vertical openings on both sides of the bumper of the new car, and the front lip with red trim embellishments was also replaced at the bottom, and the overall style was obviously much more combative.
From the picture, the body size of the new car should not be significantly adjusted, but the exterior mirrors and roof of the new car use red color, the hidden door handle is also adjusted to two black, with the new shape of the five-spoke wheel and red brake calipers, the sports style is very obvious. The tail style of the new car is not shown in the spy photos, but it is expected to be surrounded by a more sporty shape, and the tail lights may also be blackened. It is reported that the new car may be named after the Mercedes-Benz royal modification brand "Babos".
At present, the interior of the new car has not yet been announced, but it is expected to continue the overall design style of the ordinary version of the model, and make certain adjustments to some details, such as the style of seats and trim panels, to make the atmosphere in the car more sporty.
In terms of power, the ordinary version of the model is equipped with a rear axle drive motor with a maximum power of 272 horsepower and a peak torque of 343 Nm, which has been in line with the level of many "small steel cannons" from the parameter point of view. There is news that the new car will add a front motor, the system's combined maximum power will reach 400 horsepower level, if this is the case, then this performance version of the Genie #1 is expected to become one of the most representative "steel cannons" in electric vehicles.
