These things are genuine, its an electric tandem two seater, there was one in the news the other day, George Cloony has just bought one and loves driving round hollywood in it.. I hear that its actually very quick.

It shouldnt be real.....

I can see how making a car short might be useful for parking, but how does making it narrow help? There cant be that many gaps to slip thro in traffic......

stop fat people buying them? more lanes theres lots of reasons?

like.....?

if i was making it that narrow, id make it low too. Not for CoG, they apparently have that in hand, but to keep the drag coefficient low.

parking?

Unless thats less than about 6 ft long (a smart is about 8 ft?) its gonna poke out and someone will take the front of it when parked in a line of cars (less than 6ft wide) . A coach is over 8ft wide isnt it?
