Yeah...its slow to 55 lol...20 seconds, never timed it myself.
Daimler did address the issue with the slow manumatic shifting and released a software update for the smart. It doesnt get you faster to 60 but the paddles response is a bit better.

I remember having to do an emergency stop at 65mph...most scared I have ever been!

I do like the Smart for what it is...a rich person's toy or a street legal golf-cart.
