Real innovation

[cteno4]

So it's an idea already done over 100 years ago, but make so much sense now! Inexpensive auto for like 90%+ of our transport needs, smaller frame for safer unibody (yes smaller is safer in this case, look at smart car crashes with suv, smart walks away suv goes to hospital!) and great Milage in a gas car w.o using batteries which are an environmental toll. I hope this is one thing to come! One thing is that younger generations are into stuff like this, so there is hope! While I try not to be a first adopter, it does look tempting.

That's one good looking economy vehicle! It certainly beats the * out that little thing Renault/Nissan has going on at the moment. Probably also more comfortable...

It looks like a single seater trike with gasoline engine. Personally i would choose any kei car over this, but preferably either electric or at least a CNG or LNG powered one. (many popular Hungarian car types are actually Suzuki kei-s built locally that replaced old trabants, betlees and fiats)

ps: Synthetic methane (natual gas) made from water and aerial co2 could also be made fully carbon neutral if the power source is also carbon neutral.
