StarLight Garage presents the Smart Feber 4x4 Dakar from 2013, a car that was specially built for the Dakar race in 2013 by a Spanish Team, Team Feber but failed to start due lack of sponsoring money.
After all it's an amazing car and the only one in the world and like many cars this car was for sale, 45.000 Euros.

The Smart ForTwo is not exactly a car you should buy for is high-performance, but Team Feber believed in this little car and made some extreme modifications with the goal to enter the 2013 Dakar Rally with one.

To tackle the grueling 8.000 km (4,970 mile) Dakar course, the specially modified ForTwo has been equipped with a modified body, an off-road suspension and a four-wheel drive system.

The Team started with a first generation fortwo body (sold from 1998 to 2007 in Europe), and placed it atop the chassis from a Polaris XP 900 side-by-side ATV. That gives the fortwo some ground clearance, and makes room for off-road suspension. The fender flares also look like they were taken straight off a racing quad.

A Polaris ATV also supplied the Dakar smart’s engine. It’s a 900 cc that produces 90 horsepower. It may not seem like much, but it is an improvement over the stock car’s 700 cc engine (the biggest engine offered) which made, at most, 61 hp. A U.S.-spec 2013 smart fortwo passion coupe has a 1.0-liter engine, with 70 hp.

The interior also received substantial modifications. It was gutted and fitted with a roll cage, while the driver’s seat was moved to the middle, McLaren F1 style. The result is a “car” that weighs a scant 748 kg (1,650 pounds).

Further the car has a harness, fuel tank 140 liters with aluminum container, arc security, fire extinguisher and disconnect. Safety Gear rally composed Sentinel supports and antennas, and GPS Iritrack. Road book-electric roadbook, ICO trip. Maxxis Tires rally exclusive 6-ply tires mounted on Braid XtremePlus.

Unfortunately, Team Feber wasn't able to raise enough money to support their Dakar adventure. According to driver Jose Luis Alvarez Alarcón "We have no choice, we love to dream ... we like movies with happy endings" but even though we could not compete in Dakar, "the movie was pretty, very pretty ...."
