  • Yes, no back seat killers, but plenty of people to step on your Smart car and crush you to death.

  • unbig.unpretty.

  • come on that would of been an awesome commercial ive even seen worse than that that should of been banned but didnt

  • Does anyone know the name of the music used in the commercial?

  • well... Americans crack me up... they made most of the movies (if not all) that are shown in this ad.... they'd be the first freaking out about this ad. I have a smart, I love it. Not really because of the absence of potential murderers in it though ;o) .

  • No back seats...which means much less room for the "car" to crumple when it's hit by an actual vehicle...

  • I LOVE THIS COMMERCIAL!

  • LOL Great commercial

  • I dont understand why people are so stuck on safety. People ride motorcycles all the time and no one complains. The smart car has airbags, doors, safety cells, seatbelts. etc the safety is no worse than any other small car or motorcycle. Not everyone can afford to drive a tank in the name of "safety"

  • @gardnerbm I will not allow common sense in the youtube comments! Begone and take your common sense with you!

    ;)

  • LOL! gee too bad we cant have any smart commercials on tv

  • i think it's a good thing it was banned because it was a fail anyway. wrong way to advertise no back seats haha

  • lmao this was great

  • Funny

  • funny ad, but i guess it was too PG13 for some networks. pfffttt

  • Omg I thought I was the only one who checked the backseat for murderers .. :) Im glad smart is taking care of it <3

  • smart car golfcart same thing

    Watch my Video to See How! Its so easy!

  • This is a commercial that would convince me not to own their car it's just plain dumb. Why not focus on the positive aspects of these golf carts?

  • The Smart is a pretty stupid car. The commercial is kinda cool though.

  • if u dont want a back seat dont drive a smart car. do the american thing n get a pickup. or better yet, carry a gun on ur hip, or a knife in ur pocket. personal defense can never be overrated and smart cars are only trying to decrease ur awareness. u gotta stay aware. ya gotta be on ur toes! go watch red vs. blue and type those last 2 sentences in for the search n ull laugh if u like vid game humor haha

  • And I thought backseat drivers were bad...

  • Does anyone know where this song is taken from? or if theres a full length version of it?

  • Wow, crazy clip! Saw many more of them over at - Youtube Banned Videos Dot com

  • best ever!

  • people are paranoid that why

  • Love it !!!

  • Comment removed

  • why is this banned?? seriously.

  • This isn't a "banned" commercial. It just hasn't been run in all countries.  Besides, the real fear is being on the road in this contraption, not that there may be somebody hiding in the back seat if there were one.

  • I LOVE this. <3

  • wow wtf, i have seen way worse commercials 

  • Haha, I just think it's ridiculous.

  • that commercial may scare some kids

  • A little bit shocking at first, but not as bad as some stuff you see on Prime Time TV. Very funny catch phrase at the end that ties it in together. I thought that makes it a good commercial.

  • why banned? its a 'smart' & fun ad

  • Lol so true

  • i cut one of these off on the highway yesterday

  • banned?

  • best commercial ever

  • And I thought 85 miles per gallon and zero road tax were the best advantages of my brand new Smart :)

  • lol i see why its banned

  • it would be funny if ur in a smart car watching other people get killed

  • i was one of the first people to drive one of these in my city. i took one to fill it up and couldnt leave the gas station for a half hour cuz people were crouding around it. lol. the commercial was cool tho. i would buy a smart if they were like 400 bucks. fuck this 15 thousand shit. its a 2 seat outhouse with wheels.

  • ahwants to find a man who will share a good time with me

  • well the commercial is banned now they just have to ban the car before someone gets emotionally scarred from being laughed at !!

  • @7777dmith7777 you drive a ford fiesta

  • the smart has a tougher passenger cell than any usa made suv.or hummer tbh if you get hit by a semi doing 50 +mph you'r probably gonna be lucky to be alive anyway regardless of what you drive

  • i think the smart car is brilliant for commuting to work and or school but having a spare vehicle for trips and whatever else is a smart idea. i would drive that little smart car everywhere! i ride a Honda Shadow motorcycle and its nice not having everyone ask me for a ride all the fucking time. i would buy it strait up.

  • I would never buy a car that only had two seats in it. I think smart cars are stupid because the only thing good about them is that they are good on fuel... but you have to sacrifice so much. It would be much better if you still had the same capacity and the fuel efficiency of a smart car.

  • whats the song?

  • Would never buy the car, but great commercial.

  • It's a glorified golf cart. Yeah it's smart, for neighborhood driving, oh wait, people in my neighborhood drive like their on I75. If you're in a lighty, and I mean lightly, populated area it would be okay I guess. I wouldn't get one. Funny commercial though =D

    Smart Car: The only car to make you realize you're in a deathtrap on wheels and should have bought something bigger

    Sorry, no offense to anyone who has one..

  • Oh please , shut up.

    Especially if you never driven one, and i mean driven one for at least a whole week.

    I'm a Smart-owner and i do at least 50-100 km a day, no problem.

    It's a car like any other car with only 2 real disadvantages : no 2 backseats and a electronic speedlimitation of 140km/h.

    If you don't have any children and you have a brain (knowing the speedlimit) there's no problem.

  • Dummy up already... Every gas guzzler on the road ships that many more energy dollars out of the U.S.!

    You've never even been in one have you?

  • I'm not hating on it, economically it's smart, I HAVE been in one and I'm just saying I wouldn't drive one or be a passenger in one on the highway. I'd stick with something like a Scion xB or something like that.

    It's made by Daimler-AG and they are a good German manufacturer it's just if someone in a large truck or suv hits you (and it being their fault no matter how good of a driver you are or anyone) no matter how safe the Smart car is that's gonna be it.

  • If you're driving any small car and get hit by a Hummer, box truck, semi, or by any retard doing 80mph from the opposite direction it's pretty much all over. We all can't drive a semi and SUV's just don't make good economic sense anymore.

  • I wouldn't drive an SUV or truck in this economy or when it was stable. Everyone has their own opinions I have said already, it is economically smart; you save money.

    Just me personally, when I look for a car, good gas mileage is a plus but it also has to have a bit more speed, maneuverability, better safety and room (myself, passengers, luggage, groceries, etc.)

    It doesn't have to be a v6 or a gas consuming v8, there are 4 cylinder cars out there to choose from that get excellent gas mileage.

  • Nothing wrong with your way of thinking at all ShintaoTheValiant! What you say is totally true.

  • @JaleelJohanson62 Thanks

  • the smart car can only drive 140km/h and that's like the maximum, when it rolls down a hill ;D

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

    How original HAHAHAHAHAHA

    i'm sure you've put a lot of thought in this joke.

  • it wasn't a joke :/ 

    I know, I own one..

  • haha this is kinda funny

  • your safer from the murderers out to kill you but the your more likely to die when you hit a bus a 70mph!

  • at 70, no car will survive...the passengers that is.

  • @Jolee747. agreed..if u get hit, ull be like frickin thrown into the air like a baseball

  • this should be aired!!

  • The Smart fortwo is probably more deadly to the driver in an accident than the murders being commited in this video

  • lol.... The car look like a shoe

  • funny ass ad

    stupid ass car

    they don't even get that great mileage. and their crash rating suck.

  • well.... "ChrisTripp" 43 mpg is not great? wish my comp G got that... oh the diesel gets estimated 61? wow not great at all. The average of the crash ratings were 3.75 just below good. and well above average. So tell me how 1 star turned into 3.75 smartass? You are just another ignorant tard that trolls the tube and think they are funny. short and simple- you're not.

  • @WhiteLoneWolf10 you're a fag

  • one that will make it further in life than you will!

  • as if you know anything about me or the life I lead...

    fuck you

  • If "you lead" you wouldn't have wasted you time responding twice :/ just saying..

  • fuck you for thinking anyone would want to know about your pathetic existence... LOL

  • Suck my dick Johanson!

  • You're still here? Who cares....

  • As a marketing student I would say this ad is quite bad, it is creative however, but when you see murders being committed I think that just puts people off, and the message it's trying get across to the audience being 'No back seats' is just totally unrelated, even if this ad wasn't banned it still wouldn't be successful advertising.

  • aaaaaaaahahahah that was awesome xD

  • hahaha nice....i also did a smart fortwo commercial

  • If they played this just once on Disney, half the American population would die in a matter of seconds.

  • @Mnpunkrulez Please play this one on Disney! We don't need those wimpy Americans

  • @Mnpunkrulez sweet

  • I'm not really sure I understand why people don't think this should be banned. It presents a dozen semi-graphic or implied murders including strangulation by plastic bag. It's an ok commercial, but even by that standard I don't understand why you'd advertise for no back seats.

    Now knowing that this runs on Fox Crime, it seems alot more clever and applicable. Just out of place on other channels.

  • I think it would be OK, if showtime would be after "bedtime". It is pretty cool idea for a car ad.

  • 15 years ago i'd agree with you, but when this is the kind of thing showed on basic T.V, i think it would be fine.( doesn't mean I agree) i could see allowing it on certain cable channels i.e hbo cinimax syfy.

  • @Physicbuddha It would make a great commercial before a gangster movie though.

  • @Physicbuddha I think they are joking.. horror movie survival rule .. check the backseats before the getaway ..;)

  • @Kategunster I definitely get the joke - and Zombieland drove the "check the backseats" rule home pretty hard! :) Problem is, this is some pretty intense violence for a commercial, which doesn't have any parental controls, ratings screenings, etc. I appreciate the angle they're working here, but I don't want to have to explain how chloroform works to my 3 year old daughter.

  • @Physicbuddha Well it should be on a tv channel that kids dont watch like played in a spot between a show that already has a tv rating of MA .. then the only people watching it will be Mature:P

  • great ad, very stylish and funny. anyone know the song?

  • Why is this banned? I mean, what`s so bad about peo[ple killing people in a back seat, giving the impression that back-seated cars will hold killers to kill you? I mean, what's so bad aobut that....( god those idiot writers........)

  • banned for stupidity.... why would you advertise that there are no back seats?... isn't that a bad thing...?!

  • Stand by a motor way during rush hour and count how many cars have more than 2 passengers. Smart cars are usually sold as city cars...

  • not if you dont want to be murdered :P

  • Great ad

  • lol ridiculous.

  • I don't understand why the video tittle refers to this commercial as banned. I've seen it in Portugal and in Italy and I think things should be put into context.

    The ad runs on Fox Crime, a tv channel from Fox Broadcasting Company that airs across Asia and Europe, which basic programming includes tv series such as C.S.I. (all of them), NCIS, Dexter, The Closer, Numbers, The Sopranos, Criminal Minds and so on.

    This is the perfect ad for Fox Crime and it truly is a great idea and a great ad.

  • This ad is banned from where he came from. Videos aren't ever completely banned. They are only banned from being shown on TV channels from particular countries. So you can see it in a country where it is banned but watch it on a foreign channel

  • WTF???

    What an awfull ad!!!

  • haha great idea :D

    ... unfortunately bad image

  • lol

  • Banned? I call B.S.

  • HAHAHA! SMART CAR :P

  • My brother Tommy was killed in a Smart Car from a serial killer who was hiding in the trunk where back seats should of been....

  • No backseats... well said!

  • great marketing campaign:

    "Buy our car or get jumped and killed from behind!"

  • gees....what did they come out this idea...

  • So just sit with your wife in 1 seat you on the drivers seat and shove the kids on the roof and in the boot

  • If this commercial is the best marketing idea they can come up with that makes dumbcar a better choice?....wow.

    I can see plainly how it was banned. I just don't understand how no one in that company understood how disgusting and unrelevent the subject matter was. What's next? Another commercial demonstrating how unlikely a girl will get raped because it doesn't have a back seat?

  • lmao that was good

  • although it is a little violent its a good commercial!

  • i've seen this commercial alot on tv. and i don't watch much tv. but i still think its really funny

  • buy a lambo that has to seats, FUCK GLOBAL WARMING!!!!

  • well someone knows now not to do it :P

  • why was it banned

  • my 91 corvette has no backseats

  • plus it probably fucking rips

  • does anybody knows the song of this ad???

  • I call it the stupid car...

  • damn imma buy that. i don't want anyone stabbing me.

  • ahahahahahaa

  • best ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i would get one just from watching this vid

  • LMAO!

  • this car is why im so happy i dont have a girlfriend or kids

  • what? so the reason u dont have a girlfriend is because of the car? Its a freaking chick magnet

  • Mine is

  • negative images never reflect positively on a product... fail

  • nice one ! :)

  • lol, i love it

  • Right. And a banned ad gets tons of free play on site like YT.

    People actually view it and you don't have to pay for ad time. You can't do it too often, but it works. That said, the car still sucks.

  • maybe i didt put my comment right, im just saying that who ever came up with this advert must of thought that it was gonna get banned from t.v, so why still do it, so why am i getting nooed so much???

  • Because you called them stupid and assumed it would get banned everywhere when (a) not all cultures have the same excessive sensitivities and (b) sometimes getting banned is a smart thing to do.

  • why would they ban that commercial it was a perfect commercial honestly who would think of that...i give that commercial a 10

  • Weasel, since it implies that murders happen often in the backseats of regular cars even though that is not the case..

    I love the commercial though :( wish it wasn't banned.

  • so dumb. but funny

  • lol that car was in the pink panther in red

  • haha funny stuff!!

  • That was inappropriately scary for a commercial.
