There's nothing ground-breaking in these photos of SMART's upcoming Europe-only, cdi-powered Fortwo. We just thought you might want some big pictures of a little car. Plus, anyone interested in buying a U.S.-spec car who hasn't caught the tiny things touring our country can get a better view of the interior appointments. The cars pictured are even left-hand drive models. Besides color, one of the only interior differences an American driver should see is a speedo calibrated for MPH instead of KM/H.

It's too bad we won't be getting the cdi engine any time soon. SMART brags the new diesel gets about 71 MPG and says if driven 15,000 KM a year, you'll only need to fill the tank 15 times. A year. The three cylinders turn out only 45 BHP, but the whole car only weighs 1,720 pounds. Not exactly Lotus power to weight, but enough to carry around a couple of commuters with not much trouble.
