#1 Pro (MY24)

The Smart #1 Pro (MY24) is a 5-seat SUV with rear-wheel drive, on sale in the UK from £32,960. It accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 6.7 seconds, slower than 52% of the electric cars on sale in the UK. Its estimated real-world range is 155 miles (250 km) in a mix of town, country and motorway driving. That puts it among the shortest-range 10% of the 471 electric cars on sale in the UK, and 236th of 242 SUVs.

It uses around 3.3 mi/kWh (188 Wh/km), less efficient than the typical EV on sale (3.5 mi/kWh). The usable battery holds 47 kWh and on a rapid charger it averages 70 kW between 10% and 80%. With one 15-minute charging stop, it can cover an estimated 174 miles (280 km) at motorway speeds.

It has a heat pump, which helps preserve range in cold weather, and it supports vehicle-to-load (V2L), so it can power appliances from its battery. The battery uses LFP chemistry, which manufacturers generally allow to be charged to 100% routinely.

Its UK starting price works out at £212 per mile of real-world range, higher than the median for SUVs (£186 per mile).

Second-hand, a 2023 example is estimated at £12,500–£13,800 and a 2025 one at £18,800–£21,400, based on typical EV depreciation. After typical battery wear, a 2023 car should still manage about 146 miles of real-world range. These are estimates, not valuations: check real prices before you buy.
