No More Gas

"this type of business will be dead. U.S. Government will probably shut this down."

What are you on about?

Why would the US Gubmint Shut it down?

And by what legal precedent>

I could use this car because my round trip commute is only 12 miles, but $36,000 is $10,000 more than the Prius that I already purchased. What are the makers of this vehicle thinking?

I would rather get an electric Vespa.

Lol, this type of business will be dead. U.S. Government will probably shut this down.

Most commuters are going less than 30 miles round-trip, with only themselves to carry and a briefcase or some groceries. If that hatchback is also sufficient to carry at least one child-seat, then it will do for the majority and can be parked anywhere a desk would fit. Owing to the plain fact that a 'burb house requires all who live there over 18 to own and operate a car to maintain a 'burb household, this seems pretty practical. If it catches on, the relative price will go down. The cost of a full charge should be well under that of similar amounts of gas and, again parking would be cheaper, since you can share a parking space or stick it on a porch.

Looks cute to me and I could see a crazy paint job being fun on that vertical space.

I knew that looked familiar...it's a revival of the old Corbin Sparrow design.

The Sparrow was such a great car it bankrupted its manufacturer.
