When I first came here ten years ago I probably saw a Smart Car everyday. Now I almost never seen one. They are notorious for having a lot mechanical problems, a terrible transmission and gear changes and requires premium fuel. The new Smart Cars are all electric and are selling in the $25K to $30K range.
What's taken their place, Atomic Cool Kartz from China has dealer here on Signature Drive across from Brownwood off 44. I see an Atomic Car almost everyday or sometimes a couple. They're air conditioned, heaters, have a radio, and golfers can use them on the course. They're electric and are rechargeable like an electric golf cart, however I believe their batteries are much more expensive than a golf cart. Here's a link to the dealer. They sell new for $9,000 to $15,000 and sometimes you'll see a used one for sale on here.
