Brief Explanation

Few cars are as free from conventions and clichés as a smart – because a smart fits in any gap but definitely not in any category. And that’s why hardly any other car is as suited to expose clichés – even if the cliché is a typical action movie car chase or a pseudo-philosophical dialogue from a French art house film.
