With a bad back it is very easy to get into and out of the car. Very roomy when compared to other vehicles in the same class, whether two or four passenger. see full smart fortwo review |

Have driven on a number of 350 mile trips each way on the Interstae and found the ride comfortable. Around town it holds its own, except on very rough roads. see full smart fortwo review |

There is no rear seat. This is okay with me. But for someone looking for a family vehicle this could be a downside. I mostly see it as an excuse to not have to cart others around. see full smart fortwo review |

Well there is no rear seat to start with. But this could have been a better designed flip down tray design for groceries and other items. see full smart fortwo review |

The seats on this were really not nice. Cheap is the word. Poor shaping, no lumbar support. They have really improved this in the new 2012 sedan, at least. It only took them 5 years. see full Nissan Versa review |
