Filed under: Economy Euro Hatchbacks SMART

After a few sneak peeks of the new SMART fortwo we have here the full catalogue of official shots showing the U.S.-bound city car for 2007. The changes made to the car are actually substantial though extremely subtle. The fortwo has grown in all dimensions and now sits at 2.69 meters (8.82 feet) long. It will also be powered by a bigger motor that's a full liter in size and available in various power levels. A diesel option will be offered and SMART is also fitting the new fortwo with a "stop & go" system that cuts the engine at red lights much like a hybrid. Safety will be a big priority as well with each fortwo stocked with front airbargs ABS and ESP.

We also get to see the interior in this batch of photos and aside from a steering wheel that looks like it was lifted right out of the '80s the diminutive domicile looks pleasant enough and not as cramped as one might expect.

Check out a full gallery of shots after the jump.
