Thank You for responding. If there is a electric A/C solution for the Smart 451 we would love to install it.

This is my 2014 Smart Fortwo Passion Coupe (The Harlem Edition) in Harlem New York USA. I have had it since 2017, I adore it, I work on it, and I Drive it form cost to cost throughout the United States. My stock belt driven A/C compressor failed 2 weeks back and with it being nearly the end on the hot season in the New York Area and pressed for time that day I simply cut the A/C belt and drove on my way. After a week of driving the car without that belt attached on the A/C compressor, I Never want it back on the car. The difference in the feel of the car noticable. It is much more fluid to me. It is more responsive, it coast better. Shift changes are more "now", Just happier feeling car So why am I here...... 12 volt Electric A/C Compressor. I have been exploring the path to an 12 volt Electric A/C Compressor for my Air Conditioning needs. The car will be upgraded to a 240 Amp alternator. I only intend it to act as the stock A/C and only run when the car is running. I desire to have all else stock and controlled with the stock Smart dash controls, just replace the Belt driven A/C Compressor with a 12 volt (smallest possible sized) A/C compressor. Can you help guide me to this goal if it is possible.
