I guess you could carry around a briefcase or a suitcase, and still see out the back.

I don't mean to bash it though.

Passenger? where? I'd be scared to go 150mph in that.

vid? can I see can I see?

update: http://www.commutercars.com/theater.html

Dang, what engine does that silly little thing have in it? Gotta have at least 100 hp, but how does it fit!


update: Ok I thought it would be hybrid but it appears to simply have a 1000 pound battery in it. Cool.

I'd like it if it went farther than 50 miles.

I need at least 250 miles, to be safe.

And, it may be "tall," but most of its wieght is still slung low because of the batter and electronics, so it's extremely stable in corners.

Kind of like how a sailboat stays stable, with that huge weight on the underside.
