Byron Bay’s favourite off-grid chef, Shannon Bennett, has taken sustainable living to the next level by adding the all-electric smart #3 to his eco-friendly lifestyle. Known for his award-winning fine diner, Vue de Monde, and his regular MasterChef appearances, Bennett is no stranger to combining innovation with style—whether in the kitchen or on the road.
In a short video shared on LSH Auto Australia’s LinkedIn page, Bennett showcases how the smart #3 seamlessly fits into his completely self-powered Byron retreat. With a rooftop solar array generating all his energy needs and a flourishing kitchen garden at his fingertips, his home embodies the future of sustainable luxury. Now, with a 455km range, the smart #3 allows him to cruise through the Northern Rivers’ picturesque coast and hinterland, collecting premium produce for his culinary creations.
