I want one! Where do I order?
Anybody know about the emissions and if you can drive it in the US (non-California)?
I also wonder if the parts are easy and standard enough to make in more widely distributed factories. Seems the revolution waiting to happen is when a small country can make at least some of the parts in a small factory and trade with other similar partners to commodify the ecosystem, like PCs in the 1990s etc.

I'm going to take a guess that this wouldn't meet US safety standards, it's design intent really seems for serving the developing world.
- Animats 10y agoThe Ford Transit is available with an engine that meets California standards, so it could be made emissions-compliant. Crashworthyness, though... There's not much crush depth in that thing. The driver is up front. Did they install ABS?
- jonah 10y agoAs a " kit car" I suspect you can legally register and drive it. They're not held to the same standards as a production vehicle.
- ChuckMcM 10y agoExactly one, but yes you can register it.
- CPAhem 10y agoLooks like a great idea. Unfortunately, in most of the developed world, it does not look like it would not pass the occupant safety regulations.
- allengeorge 10y agoCan it be used as a utility vehicle on a farm? I assume so, otherwise tractors, etc. would not be legal, right?
