That might be forgivable if they were going for a low-cost alternative to the Leaf, but instead they're leasing it for $599 a month when you can lease a Leaf for about $350 a month. Car and Driver have a pretty honest review of it. Smart is only leasing 250 of these in the US to test the waters. Next year, the much improved 70HP version arrives in Europe. Basically, Smart is releasing a lovely product to see if people might want to buy a slightly better product. The bad reviews the car receives might do more damage than it was worth just to lease out 250 cars in a year. I sometimes wonder if Smart's executives all worked for GM in the 1980s.
