Smart: Funding, Investors & Team (Sep 2026)
Suddenly, it's no longer the shortest route that is automatically the best. But rather the route with the coolest bends and the longest straight stretches. With smart BRABUS, city traffic becomes a pleasure – and parking a minor matter. Discover the world of smart BRABUS. And experience the great feeling of vehicles whose true greatness is measurable not in inches, but in miles. Urban mobility – taken even further. In the two model variants smart BRABUS and smart BRABUS | Xclusive the smart fortwo has even more power in the city. The powerful engine gets it up to full speed even on short journeys. And it's not just the performance that's impressive. It also has a dynamic look – especially with the particularly high-quality interior features of the smart BRABUS | Xclusive. There's something new to be discovered every day in the city – especially if you're driving the smart fortwo cabrio with the soft top open. And in the smart BRABUS and smart BRABUS | Xclusive model variants you'll never miss anything that city life has to offer again. Because with their sporty engines and high-quality equipment you'll always be a frontrunner. More driving fun for more passengers: the smart forfour is particularly dynamic as a smart BRABUS and smart BRABUS | Xclusive. This is obvious at first glance. Because the aerodynamic and design components from BRABUS lend it a particularly sporty exterior. And a look inside is also a treat for the eyes – especially in the classy Xclusive variant.

About FundedIQ's Smart Funding Data
FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.
Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for Smart is left off this page rather than filled in.
