I'm surprised they didn't mention Mercedes-Benz and their monowiper that they used for a while.
- frik 10y agoI was about to write the same. I quite liked the monowiper.
- bluetomcat 10y agoWhat do you expect from a US-centric article? Oh, do you remember those cute and niche European imports from Mercedes, the W124?
- spuz 10y agoDo the US regulations mentioned in the article prohibit the monowiper design?
- bluetomcat 10y agoI don't know, but I'm just saying that such articles are basically pretending that "the rest of the world probably does the same as we do in the US". The W124 was an emblematic and brand-defining car for MB for more than a decade which also introduced this ingenious design, but they will pretend they know European car history by mentioning VW Beetle, Reliant Scimitar and Lancia Stratus.
- De_Delph 10y agoAs a kid I was fascinated by the monowiper system in our W124 estate! Still the best system imho
