Just in case anyone is not aware, this is not a new design but a remake of an old one, the Isetta: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isetta
Always loved the look of those but never drove in one, I wonder how comfortable it is to sit in one. But nice idea to bring the design back.
They’re great for city commutes to work, quick trips to the market, dropping a kid off at school, and transporting your pet to the dog park.
Do I need a car for that?
More than 90% of Americans do.
In the US there are no pedestrian paths and you have to pass 20km of parking lots to get anywhere
Wait, I knew it was bad, but there are no pedestrian paths? Don’t you have super wide roads, so there’d be plenty of space for them…
Super wide roads for tall ass vehicles who can’t see your kids.
Oh and they speed usually about 5-10mph over the speed limit.
It’s a death sentence for a non-vehicle to be on the roads. I’ve already been hit 2 times on a bike to school.
No one pays attention, no one stays at a reasonable speed, everyone thinks they own the roads.
So I’ll still need a city parking spot. Steel frame but airbags? Even the Escalade tbones me will I survive being tossed 3 blocks?
The Smart proved that small cars can stand up remarkably well in crashes.
An entry-model will cost CHF149 per month (about €156 or $169) to lease starting this summer
While I highly appreciate smaller cars or alternative car-like vehicles, this feels quite expensive to me. You can get full sized cars (mostly fuel based though) for less than that. Of course, it’s not fair to compare a small start up with the special deals of the big manufacturers but I think the majority of people will do just that.
With the base 5.5kWh battery it’ll go about 100km before needing a charge or even up to 177km max for those opting for the larger 11kWh battery pack.
While this consumption is less than 50% of the most efficient EVs known to me (Ionic, Ionic 6, Model 3, e-Up), it still feels like a lot for a microcar of that size that runs only 45 km/h. An e-bike consumes approximately 0.5-0.7 kWh per 100 km/h.
Yeah THIS thing is going to kill the SUV 👌👍🤣
Very cute. I’d love to see an edit with a happy sicko in it. :3
