SUNDAY, SEPT. 23 smart USA presents a small solution for the "big" urban issues on Charlotte's streets. The fortwo is a new vehicle that, while tiny in design, is huge in "fun and functionality." So, naturally, the designers decided to take the show on the road. The Street Smart Road Show arrives in Charlotte, technically yesterday, but you can still a glimpse of the action today. A closed test-drive course will be set up for media and consumers. Interactive displays and safety demos will be on display in the mobile smart exhibit, and there will be an opportunity to become a smart "insider," which basically means you give up your e-mail address and receive a hit when the cars drop street-side. 10 a.m.-6 p.m. Free. Ballantyne Village, 14825 John J. Delaney Drive. www.smartusa.com.
