- kps 6y agoQuite nice. What I really want is an electric kei roadster, though. With luck we'll get them to coincide with the end of the ‘crease all the things’ fashion trend.
- bborud 6y agoI don't think three wheeled cars are a good idea. They have poor handling and the mid-mounted wheel robs the car of floor pan space. I would rather have a modern take on the original Fiat 500 brief. An affordable, super light car that can seat two adults side by side and two kids, has 4 wheels, few parts with excellent aftermarket access. Keep in mind that the 500 was a strictly _functional_ car in its time. Its design expression was very, very minimal. It was built for utility. The original Fiat 500 was ~500kg. A car with an electrical motor would of course have added weight for batteries, but with the use of more modern materials than steel for the load bearing structures you should be able to hit the 750kg mark. It should be possible to make it even lighter than that. As for design, I'd rather go for something that is "toned down and contemporary". Something that doesn't make too much of a statement so it can age well. In terms of design the Mynobe is kitsch.
