Spyshots: 2014 smart fortwo Test Mule Looking Like a Twingo

We already know that Daimler is likely to show us the new smart fortwo in Geneva next month. However, that is by no means a certainty, especially since the car isn't ready for production.

A prototype for the new smart has once again been spotted, this time under the grip of the arctic winter in Norther Sweden, where it was undergoing cold weather testing.

This test car actually looks like a twinge, and that's because it used that car's body to hide its real identity.

The car is the result of the Edison Project agreement, entered by Renault-Nissan and Daimler in April 2010. This test mule will likely not only turn into the new smart city car but also a Renault model called the Izzy, sitting underneath the next Twingo in the model range. Both should have both conventional petrol engines and EV powertrains.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
