2018 Smart ED - Any Red Flags?

We're thinking about getting a used 2018 Smart Electric Drive. It's in awesome condition with super low mileage, but we're curious if there are any sneaky issues or things we should keep an eye on before pulling the trigger.

First, I would have a dealership look at it.
Second, make sure the battery under the passenger-side carpet is NOT DEAD.
Third, make sure you have a good source of parts in case of replacements.
Good luck with the purchase!

Thanks for the tips! We'll definitely get it checked out by a dealership. Any idea if the battery issue is a thing with these models?
