http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2013/02/smart-fortwo-250.jpg (http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2014-smart-fortwo-spy-shots/)Smart (http://www.autoblog.com/smart/) is continuing to test its upcoming ForFour (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/forfour/) (seen above) model and the replacement for the ForTwo (http://www.autoblog.com/smart/fortwo/) (pictured at the right), this time doing some cold-weather work in Sweden.
As we've reported previously (http://www.autoblog.com/smart/spy-shots/), the ForFour is an all-new vehicle, and it will have more in common with the smaller ForTwo than the short-lived last model that was co-developed with Mitsubishi (http://www.autoblog.com/mitsubishi/). This ForFour is instead a collaborative project with Renault (http://www.autoblog.com/category/renault/), and could spawn what will ultimately become the new Renault Twingo (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/twingo/). Some reports have it that Renault is no longer interested in the Smart partnership, but the fact that these testers were wearing French plates and were spotted caravanning with a French-registered Dacia Duster (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/duster/) adds a bit of circumstantial evidence that the match is intact.
The new ForTwo was also spied in these snowy environs. The two-seater is expected to be ready to roll before the ForFour - likely coming to market in 2014. The ForFour, meanwhile, might not show up until 2015.
Take a closer look at the ForFour (http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2014-smart-forfour-spy-shots/) and the ForTwo (http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2014-smart-fortwo-spy-shots/), in our galleries of spied photos.Smart ForFour prototype spotted alongside next-gen ForTwo (http://www.autoblog.com/2013/02/12/smart-forfour-prototype-spotted-alongside-next-gen-fortwo/) originally appeared on Autoblog (http://www.autoblog.com) on Tue, 12 Feb 2013 09:30:00 EST.
