It's a big fucking golf cart
It's legally not a car, but a quadricycle.
Those doors really inspire more FIAT jokes....go!
In Europe it does 45 km/h, so I don’t understand why they limited the US model to 19 mph
So it's classified as a quadricycle, basically a mobility scooter with a roof.
It's a death trap on US roads. It's going to be run over by a pickup truck on the first day.
Not US road legal.
Sounds like a problem with US roads having too many poorly designed vehicles that endanger others, not a problem with this vehicle. If the road is too unsafe for this surely it's too unsafe for cyclists and other light vehicles.
Yeah exactly. Like why do you need a 4 ton truck to go to the grocery store?
I think these actually aren't even street legal in most states.
Yeah so if I understand correctly, it doesn't actually hit the minimum federal requirements to access public roads without that upgrade kit.
In Europe it works well tho. For narrow and slow roads is good
ok, but getting hit in this is about as safe as a motorcycle.
