Smart also reduces prices for electric models
Private customers who order a Smart #1 or Smart #3 by February 29, 2024, will receive a discount of 3,285 euros gross or 2,760.50 euros on the net list price from Smart. The limited-time offer also applies to new leasing customers, where the discount is factored into the lease rate.
For Wolfgang Ufer, the CEO of Smart Germany, the elimination of the environmental bonus for electric cars is a severe setback. He explains:
“That's why we are supporting our private customers with the Smart environmental bonus at the beginning of 2024. For Smart, this situation is a challenge, especially as our vehicles already offer a very good value for money in their class with a high-quality standard equipment. We are taking on this challenge to further promote sustainable mobility.”
The base variants of the two Smart models currently start at 37,490 euros for the #1 and 38,490 euros for the #3 in Germany, and will be reduced to 34,205 euros and 35,205 euros respectively through the one-and-a-half-month promotion. Already at the end of the funding on December 18, 2023, Smart took over the full funding until the end of the year.
What does that mean?
Prices for electric passenger cars are dropping everywhere. However, Smart does not go quite as far as other manufacturers and limits itself to a discount of just under ten percent, valid until February 29, 2024. It will be interesting to see what the reinventing brand comes up with after that.
