The Future of Smart Driving Has Arrived

Smart, sleek, and 100 percent electric, the all-new smart #1 and smart #3 SUVs have officially arrived in New Zealand, offering Kiwi drivers a bold new way to experience the road.

These premium all-electric vehicles bring together avant-garde design, high-performance tech, and sustainable mobility in one impressive package.

Designed by the Mercedes-Benz Global Design Team, the #1 is a compact urban SUV, while #3 delivers a sportier SUV coupé style.

Both models are available in PRO+, Premium and performance-tuned BRABUS variants, perfect for those who want to combine comfort, innovation, and standout design in their next vehicle.

After generating global buzz in Europe, China, Australia, and beyond, New Zealand is among the first countries to experience this exciting new chapter in urban mobility, with early interest already being strong.

“We’re thrilled to bring smart to New Zealand,” said Mandy Zhang, Global CMO of smart. “This launch reflects our vision of forward-thinking, sustainable transport with a premium edge.”

Armstrong’s CEO, Troy Kennedy, added that these are the kinds of vehicles today’s drivers have been waiting for: stylish, electric, and engineered for modern life.

“Test drive feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, and we’re excited for what’s ahead.”
