The Smart Fortwo Cabrio 71 brings open-air motoring to a compact city car, combining a retractable roof with a short body designed for narrow streets and tight parking spaces. Its two-seat cabin keeps the focus on personal transport, while the rear-mounted engine and rear-wheel-drive layout give this micro convertible a distinctive engineering character. The three-door design offers practical access for a car of its size, and the 7.8–12-cubic-foot luggage area provides flexible room for shopping and everyday essentials. Its appeal lies in combining convertible enjoyment with the manoeuvrability of a small urban car.
For the 2007–2009 model range, the Fortwo Cabrio 71 uses a turbocharged 1.0-litre inline-three gasoline engine with double overhead camshafts, four valves per cylinder, and multi-point fuel injection. It produces 70 hp at 5,800 rpm and 68 lb-ft of torque at 4,500 rpm, paired with the five-speed automatic transmission listed by AutoSpecsHub. Power is delivered to the rear wheels. The page lists a top speed of 90 mph and 0–60 mph acceleration in 12.9 seconds. Combined fuel economy is rated at 48 mpg, with a stated driving range of 418 miles and a curb weight of 1,885 lbs.
