Smart Roadster Engines and Transmissions

The selected Smart Roadster engine example combines gasoline power with a robotic transmission and rear-wheel drive. This type of transmission operates the clutch for you, easing the workload in traffic. However, pauses during gear changes can take some adjustment, so try both gentle acceleration and stop-start driving before choosing.
