The German tuner Brabus is a specialist for big brands such as Mercedes, BMW and Porsche, now the Smart model has come out of its workshop. It is the all-electric crossover Smart #1 Brabus presented at the recently held auto show in China.

As for all its models, Brabus equipped the Smart with a “wild” body kit. All copies will be in Matt gray, Silent black and Laser red colors. However, this time the engineers were more subtle by adding additional intakes under the front cover, front air curtains, a red roof with an integrated rear roof spoiler, red mirror housings, red brake calipers and new rims in a combination of silver and black.

Inside, the seats are upholstered in black leather and Alcantara with red stitching. The same combination can be seen on the dashboard and door panels, while the steering wheel is covered in black leather with red stitching. There’s also plenty of other accessories and the Brabus logo on the headrests.

When it comes to propulsion, Brabus has placed an electric motor up front with 154 hp (113 kW) and 148 lb-ft (200 Nm) of torque, while a second electric motor with 268 hp (197 kW) and 253 lb-ft (343 Nm) of torque placed on the rear axle. Thus, the total power of the crossover is raised to 422 hp (310 kW) and 400 lb-ft (543 Nm) of torque. It reaches 62 mph in 3.7 seconds, and thanks to the 66 kWh battery, it will have a range of less than 440 kilometers.

The Smart #1 Brabus costs $40,600 in China, and whether it will be available in other markets is unknown.
