Trunk dimensions Smart #1

The Smart #1 (2025) offers a trunk with a volume of about 9.2 cu ft, expandable up to 42.4 cu ft when the rear seats are folded down.

The rear bench is split 60:40, allowing flexibility in transporting luggage. The interior design is modern and functional, featuring a flat loading floor that facilitates loading and unloading.

Trunk dimensions vary within the model range, but the practical shape and low loading edge remain consistent, easing access.

The design emphasizes everyday usability, with materials and surfaces appearing high-quality. Overall, the Smart #1's trunk provides a balanced combination of volume and practicality for a small car.

Model Information

The Smart #1 is the latest model in the Smart family, presented as a compact small car designed for urban mobility. With a modern design and advanced technology, the Smart #1 aims to appeal to environmentally conscious drivers and city dwellers alike.

The electric drive ensures an emission-free ride, while the compact build makes parking in tight city areas easier. The interior offers a blend of functionality and comfort, making the Smart #1 an attractive choice for city drivers.

Variants of the Same Series

The Smart #1 is offered in various variants, including different equipment levels and powertrains. However, there are no classic variants like sedan or convertible, as the Smart #1 is designed as a unified model with a specific body design.

Differentiation mainly occurs through equipment and technical features tailored to individual buyer needs.

Model Year Differences

Since the Smart #1 is a new model, there are currently no significant model year differences affecting body or trunk dimensions.

Future model years may bring adjustments in equipment or technology that could also impact the trunk. Current information on such changes is not yet available, as the model was recently launched.

Direct Competition

In the same price range and size, there are several comparable models, such as the Mini Electric and the Fiat 500e.

The Mini Electric offers a trunk volume of about 7.5 cu ft, significantly less than the Smart #1. The Fiat 500e has a trunk volume of about 6.5 cu ft, also less than the Smart #1. These differences make the Smart #1 a more attractive option for buyers valuing larger cargo space.

More Affordable Alternatives

For buyers with a smaller budget, there are some alternatives with similar trunk dimensions. Models like the Dacia Sandero offer a trunk volume of about 11.6 cu ft and are generally cheaper to purchase.

The Kia Picanto also provides a trunk volume of around 9 cu ft, offering a more affordable option but with less cargo space than the Smart #1. These models are worth considering if price is a decisive factor.

Trunk space Smart #1

Trunk Volume

The trunk volume of the Smart #1 ranges depending on the source between approx. 9.4 cu ft (independent sources) and 11.1 cu ft (manufacturer specification). An average value from these figures is about 10.2 cu ft, which is ≈‑31.19 % smaller than that of an average car.

Practical loading options:

Up to the window sill with folded rear seats: 22.1 cu ft (independent sources).
Up to under the roof with folded rear seats: 34.5 cu ft (manufacturer) or 40.8 cu ft (independent sources).
Without parcel shelf and up to the roof, reports indicate up to 14.3 cu ft can be realized; alternatively, up to six beverage crates fit.
Under the foldable trunk floor: an additional approx. 2.1 cu ft. Frunk: 0.5 cu ft (e.g., for Tire-Fit or first aid kit).

Everyday effect: For daily shopping or weekend trips, the normal volume is usually sufficient; for vacation luggage or larger items, one should either fold down the rear seats (significantly more space then) or expect limited space for bulky cargo.

Vehicle Size and Parking Friendliness

Dimensions: 168.1 in long, 71.7 in wide, 64.6 in high.

Compared to an average car, the Smart #1 is 11.4 in shorter (‑6.4 %), 1.2 in narrower (‑1.6 %), and 2.8 in taller (+4.6 %). Relative to a standard parking space, it is significantly smaller (28.7 in shorter, 26.8 in narrower).

Everyday effect: The compact exterior dimensions make the #1 especially city- and parking-friendly. The slightly greater height rarely has a negative impact in daily use but may offer a bit more headroom.

Trunk Usability and Flexibility

Positives:

Loading surface can be loaded almost flat without an additional step (advantage when unloading).
Asymmetrically split rear seats with guided straps prevent pinching when folding down.
Electric tailgate with foot-kick gesture facilitates opening.
Many loading options: frunk, underfloor compartment, pass-through in the rear seat backrest.

Assessment of limitations:

Loading edge 30.3 in is relatively high, making lifting heavy items more strenuous.
When rear seats are fully folded, a step forms; the loading surface is then not completely flat.
Trunk lighting is sparse (one light on the driver’s side).
When closing the tailgate, there is no additional button for automatic vehicle locking.
The supplied Type-2 cable is difficult to store in the compartment with a folding lid.
Maximum tailgate opening height ≈ 72.8 in — a potential head-bumping risk for very tall persons.

Everyday effect: Loading flexibility is good — many practical details (underfloor compartment, frunk, foldable seats) increase everyday usability.

Heavy cargo is made more difficult by the high loading edge; for frequent transport of large furniture, the car is less ideal, but it is very suitable for shopping, crates, and occasional larger loads with folded rear seats.

General Model Information

Familiarity & Features: The Smart #1 appears as a compact SUV aimed at buyers who want city-friendly dimensions combined with variable cargo space. Notable details include the frunk compartment, electric tailgate with foot sensor, and guided straps when folding seats.

Characteristics: Flush door handles can make opening difficult in certain situations (e.g., with one hand); missing interior grab handle and partially limited access for rescue personnel have been noted. Curb weight and payload: curb weight 1,800 kg, payload 425 kg — this limits combined passenger + cargo load.

Price-performance ratio: No specific prices are included in the fact package. The equipment (e.g., 22 kW onboard charger in the premium specification) and practical space layout suggest a competitive offer in the compact EV SUV segment; final evaluation depends on price and equipment package.

Competitor models: Direct comparisons include compact electric SUVs/crossovers in the same market segment. For targeted competition analysis, price, range, and equipment should be considered.

Brief conclusion: The Smart #1 is a city-friendly compact SUV with a small trunk in everyday use but high flexibility through foldable seats, additional compartments, and electric tailgate.

Those with regular large loading needs benefit only with folded seats; for everyday use, shopping, and city driving, it is practical.
