The customisation programme „smart BRABUS tailor made“ that was launched two years ago and has now become established throughout Europe is also very successful. In 2012 it will also be extended to customers in the USA and China. According to the current forecast, more than 1000 customers will choose the smart-BRABUS tailor made offering this year. tailor made underlines one of the great strengths of smart-BRABUS – individualisation of the vehicle interior and exterior. In Germany, for example, prices start at €2999 incl. VAT for an exterior colour of the customer’s choice or exclusive leather appointments in the interior.

REFERENCES EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The present MCC smart GmbH was founded in April 1994 in Bienne in Switzerland as a joint venture between the then Mercedes-Benz AG, Stuttgart and Schweizerische Gesellschaft für Mikroelektronik und Uhrenindustrie AG (SMH), Bienne. Following the 100-percent takeover by the then Daimler-Benz AG in November 1998, the business activities were transferred from Bienne to Renningen in January 1999. Parallel to this the former Micro Compact Car AG was renamed Micro Compact Car smart GmbH. The tiny car looks like something used in a sci-fi movie for personal transportation on the elevated highways of Planet Xenia. The Smart, as it's called, is a tw-oseater intended principally for tooling through crowded streets.
