The Smart rumor mill keeps churning and this latest image adds even more fuel to the fire. Thanks to some crafty, long-lens work, a photographer has managed to capture a diminutive example of a four-passenger Smart ForTwo.

The 1:4 scale model clearly wears an extra set of doors and the wheelbase, if scaled up to full-size, is also longer than current Smart ForTwos.

Smart has dealt with some sales issues of late and a new model could be what the automaker needs to spark renewed interest in the States. The ForTwo is due for a makeover and the addition of a four-seater could be compelling for city folks who want to transport friends. If the Roadster winds up in production, Smart will have three-pronged approach to renewing its appeal among U.S. consumers.
