Question:
How is demand likely to affect dealers’ willingness to negotiate prices with Smart Car buyers?

Tired of emptying their wallets every time they filled their gas tanks, many U.S. drivers were thinking about downsizing from a big sport-utility vehicle or pickup truck to a smaller vehicle. But were they ready for a 106-inch-long car that seats only two people? Daimler was ready to find out.
