Smart says its limited Couture Edition of the electric Smart #2 sold out across Europe within 14 days of pre-orders opening on October 13, 2026. The edition is limited to 999 cars; the regular range starts at €19,990, with customer deliveries scheduled for the second quarter of 2027.
Smart says its limited Couture Edition of the electric Smart #2 sold out across Europe within 14 days of pre-orders opening on October 13, 2026. The company says the edition is limited to 999 cars; the result gives the brand an early sales milestone for its small two-seat electric car, which is due to reach customers in the second quarter of 2027.
The announcement concerns the Couture Edition pre-order allocation, not the whole Smart #2 range. Smart has not said that all versions of the car are sold out. Buyers can also choose the Pure, Pure+ and Premium trims, which are listed separately from the limited edition.
The Couture Edition starts at €25,690 and is based on the Premium specification. Smart lists a panoramic glass roof, Sennheiser audio, heated seats and steering wheel, a smartphone charging pad and navigation among its equipment. Its distinctive details include silk-matt white paint, a gold-accented roof and 16-inch Lyra alloy wheels with gold accents.
The regular range has a stated starting price of €19,990. Smart describes the car as a 2.75-metre-long electric two-seater, and says the first customer deliveries are planned for the second quarter of 2027. The company has not announced a delivery date for each trim or provided a breakdown of orders by country.
An Early Test of Smart’s Return
The sellout gives Smart an early indication of demand for a smaller car as it returns to the compact two-seater format associated with the Fortwo. In recent years, the company’s electric lineup has included larger vehicles; the #2 is intended to bring the brand back to small, city-focused cars. That positioning may matter to buyers seeking an electric vehicle with a small footprint, though the pre-order result alone does not establish demand for the wider range.
The announced prices also put the model into a competitive part of the electric-car market. The €19,990 starting price is lower than the Couture Edition’s €25,690 price, but both remain manufacturer-listed figures rather than evidence of final transaction costs or overall affordability. The limited edition’s sellout may reflect interest in its specification and restricted availability as well as interest in the car itself.
For prospective buyers, the distinction between the 999 limited cars and the other trims is practical: the Couture Edition is no longer available to pre-order according to Smart’s announcement, while the company has not said that the regular versions have sold out. The most consequential next measure will be whether deliveries begin on schedule and how the full range performs once customers can buy and use it.

From Fortwo to Electric #2
The #2 is described as the electric successor to the Smart Fortwo, developed by the Geely-Mercedes-Benz joint venture. Smart opened pre-orders on October 13, 2026, and the vehicle was shown at the Paris Motor Show that month. The company’s November 2 sales update followed less than three weeks after orders opened.
Smart says the car uses its Electric Compact Architecture and measures 2.75 metres long, with a 1.88-metre wheelbase. The published specifications include a 60-kW rear electric motor, a 35.7-kWh CATL LFP battery and a stated WLTP range of up to 290 kilometres. Those are manufacturer-provided specifications; real-world range can vary with conditions and use.
The company also lists a turning circle of 6.95 metres and a 305-litre boot behind the two seats. Charging specifications vary by trim for AC charging, while Smart lists DC fast charging at up to 65 kW across the range. The model’s small dimensions and two-seat layout distinguish it from larger electric cars, but the announced figures do not yet show how it will perform in everyday driving.
“The demand for the Couture Edition shows that the Smart #2 strikes an emotional chord.”
— Florian Nemitz, CEO of Smart Deutschland
What the Sellout Does Not Show
Smart’s report does not provide country-by-country order figures, the number of customers on any waiting list, or whether cancellations could reopen availability. It also does not describe how many prospective buyers tried to order after the 999-unit allocation was taken. The reported sellout should therefore be read as the company’s account of the limited edition’s pre-orders, not as a measure of total demand for every Smart #2 version.
The source material does not state whether the Pure, Pure+ and Premium trims are currently open for orders in every European market, or provide their full market-specific pricing and equipment. Although deliveries are scheduled for Q2 2027, Smart has not given exact dates, a delivery schedule by country or details about production volumes beyond the limited edition’s cap.
Specifications such as the up-to-290-kilometre WLTP range and charging times are published figures, not independent real-world test results. The announcement does not include an independently verified assessment of driving range, charging performance, or how much customer demand will carry over from the limited edition to the regular trims.
Deliveries Scheduled for 2027
The next major milestone is the start of customer deliveries, which Smart currently schedules for the second quarter of 2027. The company says it wants to bring the car to the roads as quickly as possible in 2027, but has not provided a more precise date. Updates on production, order availability and market-specific delivery plans would clarify how the launch is progressing.
Potential buyers of the non-limited versions will need to check local Smart ordering information for current availability, prices and equipment. Further details on the regular trims and deliveries may also show whether the Couture Edition’s rapid sellout signals broader demand or was chiefly a response to the edition’s limited run and distinctive specification.
