我看smart在久衰不振這麼長的一段時間，一定是餓昏了頭，為了解決當務之急的虧損問題，尋求降低成本的方法，與三菱共用引擎，才可以提早結束赤字。
引擎貼在下面，英文麻煩一下車友有空翻譯一下囉，小弟明天又要出國，暫時沒時間翻譯囉，要來去整理行李囉。

Features of new 3-cylinder MIVEC engine
The new 3-cylinder 660cc MIVEC engine delivers outstanding power and torque, fuel economy and emissions performance. The turbocharged unit produces 47kW (64PS) of power. In addition, with the MIVEC variable valve timing system, it is expected to return a 15% better fuel economy than the current eK Sport model powered by the 3G83-type turbocharged unit, based on the 10-15 driving cycle, and to earn a 3-star LEV rating for emission levels that is 50% cleaner than Japanese 2005 Low-Emission Vehicle requirements. The midship location and 45-degree rearward tilt of the new engine have allowed greater flexibility in developing the front end and also a longer wheelbase. These features contribute to excellent handling and stability as well as to an attractive body shape wrapped in softly flowing lines. In addition, the use of an electronically controlled throttle realizes silky-smooth but powerful acceleration that suffers none of the jerkiness associated with turbocharged engines and contributes to strain-free drivability and satisfying fun-to-drive qualities. To further enhance the driving experience and realize a level of occupant comfort normally found in larger cars, careful attention has been given to reducing noise and vibration. Measures employed include the use of a silent timing chain, while the use of an aluminum oil pan adds stiffness to the engine block
The new 3-cylinder MIVEC will be produced at MMC's Mizushima powertrain factory.
