🚨 2024 Smart ForTwo: Emergency Neutral
Smart discontinued the ForTwo for the U.S. market after 2019; no 2024 gas ForTwo exists in North America.
🧰 Drafted with AI under the editorial review of Chris Hackleman & Jeff Moore — cross-check against your owner’s manual when possible.
⚠️ Chock the wheels first — neutral means the car can roll. Set the parking brake while you work, never stand downhill of the vehicle, and try a 12-volt jump before any override: power fixes most stuck-in-park problems instantly.
The procedure
- Verify the actual model year and market—Smart ForTwo production ended in 2019 for North America and 2023 globally, with no gas models after that point
- If you have a different Smart model (such as the electric EQ ForTwo or the #1 crossover), refer to the correct procedure for that vehicle
