What to Check Before Buying.
The Smart #1 arrived in the UK in 2023 as the brand's first electric SUV, built on Geely's SEA platform. It targets premium small SUV buyers who want distinctive styling and a tech-focused interior. As a relatively new model, long-term reliability data is still building, but early reports suggest solid build quality with typical EV concerns around software updates and charging systems.
