You may remember that our spies recently caught up with Smart engineers trying out a shorter <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/08/scoop-first-2014-smart-fortwo-test-mule.html">mule for the next ForTwo,</a> again using body parts from the Renault Twingo.

If you're wondering why the Daimler Group's brand would use bits and pieces from the French carmaker's model, it's because the two automakers have forged an alliance and will co-develop several vehicles including the <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2011/03/renault-to-launch-all-electric-twingo.html">replacements for the Smart ForTwo and the Renault Twingo</a>, which will share a common platform and engine range. <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-svSZtEU8f8A/UDzHxRfJKwI/AAAAAAAIvhQ/kabv8mpCiss/s1600/2014-Smart-ForTwo-7.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" height="92" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5781715670958418690" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-svSZtEU8f8A/UDzHxRfJKwI/AAAAAAAIvhQ/kabv8mpCiss/s200/2014-Smart-ForTwo-7.jpg" style="float: right; margin: 0px 0px 10px 10px; cursor: pointer; border: 1px solid rgb(224, 224, 224);" width="127"></a>Even though there's nothing that this test mule can tell us about the next ForTwo's exterior looks, Smart may preview its two-seater model with a thinly disguised concept as early as this September at the Paris Motor Show.

Even when Brabus got its hands on the Smart <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/search/label/Smart%20Fortwo">ForTwo</a>, the purpose was to turn the diminutive two-seater into a pocket-rocket. Yet the latest model bearing the Brabus moniker will emit no smoke whatsoever. Certainly not from its tires and not from its exhaust pipe either. This is because the Brabus electric drive is based on the<a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2011/09/iaa-2011-third-generation-of-smarts.html"> all-electric, zero emissions version of the ForTwo</a>. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/03/smart-to-display-brabus-electric-drive.html#more">Read more »</a>

However, that doesn't mean you should park anywhere you can because you may be in for an unpleasant surprise upon your return as this owner of what looks like it's the <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/search/label/Brabus">Brabus edition</a> of the ForTwo found out, presumably in Paris, France. The driver evidently parked the car over a motorized bollard which had enough power to lift the Fortwo partially in the air.
