Smart was once a tightly focused urban mobility experiment. Today, it is a structurally fragile EV startup wearing the shell of a legacy microcar brand. As 2026 approaches, the brand’s financial and operational posture reflects mounting debt exposure, strategic overreach, and a business model dependent on capital inflows rather than self-sustaining cash generation.
Smart no longer produces the iconic Fortwo in Europe. Its pivot to the fully electric #1 and #3 crossovers represents not a natural evolution but a forced reinvention. The old product strategy collapsed under tightening EU safety regulations and shrinking margins on microcars. The new strategy is capital-intensive, crowded, and dependent on sustained EV demand in a cooling global market.
Smart is jointly owned by Mercedes-Benz Group and Geely. On paper, this partnership offers industrial backing and engineering support. In practice, it creates structural vulnerability. Smart lacks full autonomy and exists at the mercy of its parents’ capital priorities. If either partner reprioritizes resources toward their own core operations, Smart becomes expendable.
