Abstract
In 1993, Daimler-Benz embarked upon a feasibility study for the Smart town car. The ecologistics challenge was to create a modular production facility and develop a networked industrial complex to meet the demanding environmental, logistical and constructional requirements. The author gives an overview of production of the Smart facility at Hambach, Germany
