Muminsi ine natwarwaga na Smart Fortwo kubintu bisa. Ubwoko bwubwenge bwaramukije bati: ikaze mumuryango.
Nta modoka nyinshi nka Smart Fortwo, kandi ntabwo ari ukubera imiterere yumubiri idashidikanywaho. Smart Fortwo iratandukanye kubera izindi mpamvu. Hano hari imodoka nke zitanga ibisobanuro bisobanutse byubuzima runaka kuri ba nyirabyo nka Smart. Ikirangantego gihujwe nimyambarire, igezweho, imijyi, ibigezweho nibindi byose-tekinoloji-gourmet-hipster-não-sei-das-quantas lexicon. Muri make, uhujwe nibintu byose umusore nkanjye, uri hafi yimyaka 30, adafite akazi kenshi, yavukiye kandi akurira mumupaka wa Alentejo, afite ikibazo cyo guca. Yego ndabizi! Ntabwo abafite ubwenge bose bameze nkabo, kubera ko Smart Fortwo nshya na Forfour bisa nkibishimisha abumva imyaka yose… Ariko iyo iyi nzira igenda itandukana, ni ngombwa kubisobanura.
“(…) Ishimwe ryiza nshobora gutanga Smart Fortwo nshya ni uko yitwara nka Smart nyayo mumujyi kandi nkimodoka isanzwe kumuhanda”
Smart Fortwo iratandukanye kuko itujyana mubintu bisa. Ukuri aho abashoferi ba Smart basuhuzanya, bazunguruka no guhana kumwenyura. Ndarambiwe kugendera mumodoka zitandukanye, ariko iyi ndumiwe!, Iyi itwara itandukaniro kuri ba nyirayo. Nongeye kubisubiramo: ntabwo ba nyirabyo bose, nahuye na koti nyinshi zikomeye. Ariko ukunda kutamera gutya.
Nari maze kwandika hashize igihe nsanga bisekeje uburyo Abanyabwenge bitwara nkubwoko. Bafite ibirori, amanama, nibindi. Noneho, kunshuro yambere, nabayeho inararibonye imbere, igihe ninjiraga mumuryango. Numvaga ari David Attenborough wiga ubwoko bushya.
Ndavuga ko uburambe bwanjye bwarushijeho gukomera bitewe nuko iyi Smart Fortwo ari shyashya (ntabwo yari ifite ibirometero 100 bitwikiriye) kandi ifite ibara ridasanzwe, simbizi. Ukuri nuko nasanze ubusabane nimpuhwe nakiriye nabashoferi benshi bahisemo Fortwo nkuburyo bwabo bwo gutwara bishimishije, nkaho bambwiye ngo "urakaza neza muri club, yewe mushya".
Nkuko umutwe wiki kizamini ubyerekana, ntabwo rwose nagiye gukubita umupira hamwe na Fortwo. Usibye koroshya parikingi, titanic kwizerwa rya verisiyo ya CDI nibisohoka, sinashoboraga kumva impamvu 'umutwaro wamazi' abantu bakorewe ikibazo cyo guhagarikwa, gutinda kwa gare hamwe nibikorwa bibi bya igisekuru cyambere cyimodoka itabikoze byari bihendutse.
Hamwe nigisekuru cya kabiri, ibintu byateye imbere cyane ariko ntibihagije kugirango umwanditsi wawe wa serivisi ahindure ibitekerezo. Njyewe, Smart Fortwo yari hejuru ya byose, uburyo bwo gutangaza umuntu ku giti cye - ibyo bita societe-tekinoroji-gourmet-hipster-ibyo aribyo byose.
Byari bimeze, ariko ndaretse kuba. Iyaruka rya gatatu Smart Fortwo, ryatejwe imbere na Renault, ryasimbutse ubuziranenge. Kimwe nabayibanjirije, irakomeza kuba ingirakamaro kandi yoroshye guhagarara, ariko bitandukanye nibyo, ubu ikora neza mumuhanda kandi iroroshye.
Muri iyi verisiyo ifite moteri ya 90hp 0.9 hamwe na moteri ya kabili ya kabili nayo yoherejwe, atari mumijyi gusa ahubwo no mumuhanda. Birababaje kubona ibyo ukoresha cyane, burigihe hejuru ya litiro 6 - nubwo ibyo kurya bishobora kuba bifitanye isano na mileage yiki gice. Na none, garebox ya-clutch nayo yari ikwiye uburyo buciriritse, bwihuse kuruta ECO kandi ntibukabije kurenza uburyo bwa SPORT.
Gukomeza isesengura rifite imbaraga, ishimwe ryiza nshobora gutanga Smart Fortwo nshya nuko yitwara nka Smart nyayo mumujyi kandi nkimodoka isanzwe kumuhanda. Ikintu rwose kirenze ibisekuruza byabanjirije. Moteri ya 90hp irarenze bihagije ariko niyemeje kuvuga ko verisiyo ya 71hp izarushaho gukurikiranwa.
Mu mujyi, nibyo tuzi. Byoroshye cyane gutwara kandi byukuri gutobora mumwobo uwariwo wose. Guhindura radiyo ni nto cyane kuburyo Fortwo yifunguye ubwayo. Naho ivalisi, irahagije kuri 99% yibikenewe bya buri munsi.
Imbere, plastike zose zirakomeye kandi ibice bya Renault-Nissan birahoraho. Ariko, inteko ntishobora guteshuka cyane kandi igishushanyo cyahumetswe. Utuye neza mu kidage gito hamwe na tike yubufaransa. Umwanya wo gutwara ntabwo wankunze rwose, ariko bigomba kuba ikibazo cyanjye kuko inshuti zanjye zose zatwaye Smart zikunda "kugendera hariya" - ntabwo ari abasore, Smart ntabwo ari imodoka yabategarugori.
Amahitamo yihariye, nkuko bisanzwe, ni menshi. Ibara ryinshi ryamabara yo hanze yahujwe nibishoboka byinshi imbere, bikagora Fortwos ebyiri guhuza neza. Igiciro cyiki gice ntabwo gitumirwa cyane: 16.295 euro (ibisobanuro byose byiki gice hano). Agaciro umuntu yakwitega hafi yingingo nkamatara hamwe na fomu yikora, kurugero. Kumufuka muke, Smart Fortwo iraboneka kuva kumayero 10.950 hamwe na moteri ya 71hp 1.0 hamwe na garebox (imbonerahamwe yibiciro hano).
Ndatuye ko nyuma yo kugendana nawe muriyi minsi, natangiye gukunda igitekerezo. Gusa njye, wavuze ko ntakunda Smart Fortwo. Birashoboka ko umunsi umwe nzasubira mumuryango… Nkumbuye kubona umwanya mu mwobo uwo ari wo wose, kunyura mu muhanda kandi ntandukanye.
