Sometimes we look at builds like this Smart ForTwo transformed into a hardcore off-roader and just are amazed at human ingenuity. Obviously, this thing was built in part for laughs and we’re sure anyone who takes it out on trails will get just that. Oh, and we should mention it’s up for sale, so you could be the one making people’s day in the wilderness.
Buy a former Humvee ambulance for your adventure vehicle.
The current owner of this thing made it in a somewhat simple, ingenious way. After removing the body off a 2008 Polaris RZR they grafted the body from a 2011 Smart car onto the chassis. This is a fairly popular way to easily build something extreme, although some will consider it “cheating.” We don’t.
According to the seller, the Smart was an all-electric ForTwo. That does explain some of the aesthetics elements to the body. In a way, having the EV be used on a rocking side-by-side is almost like poetic justice or maybe nature healing – take your pick.
What this means is you get to cruise on trails with a little bit more protection and comfort. While a Smart ForTwo doesn’t seem to offer much of either among cars, a RZR isn’t exactly a plush, luxurious ride.
You get a fully enclosed interior, keeping mud, dust, etc. out. Plus there is some noise insulation from the setup. As the seller points out, you also have power windows and a stereo to listen to, which are admittedly nice additions.
Plus, you get a cargo area, something the ForTwo normally doesn’t really offer, so that’s a nice bonus. But the real treat is seeing the faces of people as you blast along a trail or even tool down your local road (if you can legally register it to drive on the street where you live).
