Smart delivers over-the-air update for the Smart #5

Smart has delivered a comprehensive over-the-air update for the Smart #5, which will be available for customers in all European markets from the beginning of March 2026 and rolled out in cascades.

The Smart #5 now enables drivers to access active speed limit warning settings directly via the Drive Setup Button. With only two taps, the vehicle instantly restores preferred configurations for a range of driving preferences and driver assistance systems. The added traffic sign recognition selection option allows to select an active speed limit warning: Visual only, visual and audio, or off.

The model also now comes with a new voice assistant capability. Instead of searching through manuals or menus, drivers can now simply ask their smart how a feature works and get an instant, clear explanation. The system draws on content from the user manual and FAQ documents to provide answers, both spoken and displayed on the central screen.

And with the latest over-the-air update, Amazon Music is now integrated into the Smart #5 app store, giving drivers access to millions of songs, playlists, and podcasts - all without connecting or using their phone.

The Smart #5 also has a new screen mirroring feature. When users connect their laptop, tablet, or smartphone to the vehicle's USB-C port using an HDMI converter, this allows them to display content on the central and passenger screen when stationary.

Moveable between both screens, it is ideal for reviewing presentations, participating in video calls, working on documents on a larger display, or streaming content during breaks. It is also integrated with intelligent safety logic that limits display to the passenger screen whilst driving.
