I have tried to buy one of these but despite my many arguments/pleading they are unwilling to sell any just yet:-(

My guess is that they want to have an extended test period and only sell the second generation.

Unfortunately Daimler/Mercedes are selling a fleet that is very much gas guzzling. The Smart cars are a tiny proportion,.
