2026 smart #6 Plug-in Hybrid Hatchback Sedan Pre-sales Begin, Starting at ¥189,900

24 April 2026

On April 24, 2026, at the Beijing Auto Show, smart officially launched pre-sales for the 2026 smart #6—a mid-size hatchback sedan built exclusively for the Chinese market and the world's first vehicle to feature a combination of a 3-speed DHT hybrid system, a high-efficiency 1.5T engine, and LiDAR-enabled intelligent driving technology. Rather than pursuing "global synchronization" or merely piling on luxury brand labels, the smart #6 leverages a *systematic integration of Chinese new energy technologies* to offer young families—who prioritize performance, intelligence, and spaciousness—an "all-rounder" with a "compact footprint, immense energy," all within a price range *starting at ¥189,900*.

1. Vehicle Exterior Design

Dimensions: 4906mm × 1922mm × 1508mm, with a wheelbase of 2926mm. This makes it the largest model in smart's history, rivaling traditional mid-size sedans.

Front Fascia: Features a full-width LED light strip paired with "Cyber Light & Shadow" headlights. These headlights incorporate an embedded *10,666-point LED micro-matrix*, supporting over 20 official light sequences as well as user-customizable lighting effects, thereby enabling a visual dialogue between "car and driver."

Side Profile: Defined by a fastback roofline, frameless doors, flush door handles, and 19/20-inch sport alloy wheels. Optional yellow brake calipers are available to further accentuate its performance DNA.

Rear Design: Features a full-width taillight cluster complemented by an *electrically retractable spoiler*. The tailgate utilizes a hatchback design, offering a trunk capacity of 525L—a level of practicality far exceeding that of traditional sedans.

Body Structure: Composed of 85% high-strength steel and aluminum alloy, with hot-stamped steel accounting for 16% of the composition, striking an optimal balance between lightweight construction and collision safety.
