The smart #3 Premium has come down in price dramatically and it may be time to pick one up.
The smart #3 Premium, previously launched at RM215,000, is now available for just RM198,000, making it one of the best-value mid-size electric SUVs in Malaysia under the RM200K mark. This price cut puts it in a highly competitive position, offering features and performance that rival EVs costing up to RM300K.
Positioned between the entry-level Pro and the high-performance BRABUS variant, the Premium spec combines the best of both worlds. It shares the larger 66kWh NMC battery from the BRABUS but uses the rear-mounted single motor from the Pro, delivering 455km WLTP range—the longest in the smart #3 range.
The 22kW AC charging capability is another highlight, significantly faster than the industry standard in this price bracket.
Sleeker Design and Improved Aerodynamics
The #3 builds on the smart #1’s platform but adopts a sleek coupé-style roofline, improving its drag coefficient to 0.27 from the #1’s 0.29. The design not only boosts efficiency but also gives the SUV a sportier, more dynamic presence. Drivers can also enjoy a lower brake regeneration mode, offering a smoother, more natural driving feel.
