Smart's New City Car Revealed Using Street Murals

How often do you see a brand-new car "revealed" on a wall before it ever hits an auto show stand? That is exactly what Smart is doing with the new Smart #2, splashing its tiny electric two-seater across massive murals in cities like Berlin, Paris, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Buenos Aires, and Melbourne. The car is still officially "upcoming," but the street art already shows it essentially undisguised.

The murals give compact EV fans a first look at the production styling months before the Smart #2's world premiere at the Paris Motor Show in October 2026. If you are cross-shopping small city cars, this is where you see how closely the new model sticks to the old Fortwo's footprint and where it clearly moves upmarket.
