You'll laugh until people see what you're car looks like.
- ajross 18y agoDunno, I think it looks pretty cool. Bikes are much cheaper and get still better milage, though.
- marvin 18y agoOnly because they are lighter and slower. I'm sick of people complaining about how much energy an aircraft consumes. No traveler is willing to submit to a 4-hour airplane ride to travel a few hundred kilometers, yet this is an excellent way to give the airplane both better mileage and higher speed than a car. We could easily design a powered vehicle that has weight on the same order as a bike, while getting better mileage. I can just hear the customers queuing up to buy it: "A motorcycle with a top speed of 40 kph?" Perhaps this mindset is about to change. But I wouldn't bet on it.
- felideon 18y agoAt which point they would laugh at you. =)
- Xichekolas 18y agoI dunno, I thought the thing looked pretty awesome. I'd feel like Maverick showing up to work in that!
- noonespecial 18y agoIt's got a cool look to it. Like a little rocket. At only 660 pounds though sitting a 350lb American in it is going to seriously degrade that mileage figure. There is a point coming in the near future (with these ultralight cars) where being a bit on the tubby side is going to directly impact your commuting costs!
- wheels 18y agoThey must know how to eat right in them parts where you live if 350 lbs is "a little on the tubby side".
