Commuter Car Corp’s Tango.

Meet the Commuter Car Corp’s Tango. It’s so small that it can perpendicular park, in a parallel parking space for regular cars!

As far as performance goes, the Tango is no slouch. Since electric cars–especially small ones–are generally thought to be slow and weak performers we set out to blow some minds by designing the Tango to accelerate through the standing 1/4 mile in 12 seconds at over 120 mph and travel from 0 to 60 mph in 4 seconds.

    That car is the ugliest damn thing I’ve ever seen. I wonder if a good gust of wind would topple that thing over on it’s side?

    Funny, it’s juxtaposed with that Ferrari 308 or 328 next to it…

    Unfortunatley the average American is as wide as that car.

    It’s like half of a smart car. Ugly, yes, but pretty practical.

    I once saw someone do that with a VW Bug (old-school, not that new Tron car). It was spectacular, because this was in a 2-deep parking lot and someone had apparently taken two spaces. So some hippie zipped in and parked in front of them at a 20 degree angle or so. It was the most Magoo-ish thing I’ve ever seen.
