Feast your eyes on the rather vivid Smart ForStars. Looking a bit like a refugee from the Pixar animated film 'Cars', this intensely red creation is Smart's new two-seater concept car, set to be unveiled at the 2012 Paris Motor Show later this month. The small two-seater coupé shares the brushless electric motor from Smart's ForTwo-based zero-emissions BRABUS electric drive, but it's been uprated to 60 kW for a bit more zip.

I'm a huge fan of Smart cars. However, the interior is a bit too futuristic for me, thank you, so I'll hang fire until the actual car comes along, presumably in more acceptable guise than this one.
The electric model sounds good, though, and having driven electric cars that Renault had in their ZE roadshow, I'm convinced that they are viable and acceptable. They're also silent, which is wonderful.

Looks nice, and electric has to be the fuel of the future, either that or hydrogen.
