One error The BMW Isetta did have a reverse gear, and originally 4 wheels, the 2 rear ones only 9 inches apart. However for the UK market BMW wanted it to be classed as a tricycle which pays a much lower road tax than a car and can be driven on a motorcycle licence, which millions of Brits already had. To be a tricycle it had to weigh no more than 896 lbs. have only 3 wheels, and no reverse gear. The reverse gear was blocked with a pin in the gearbox, but it was easy to remove and make reverse operative. In 1963 that mod was made legal, probably because every owner did it anyway. Just unscrew a plug in the gearbox, pull out the pin, and replace the plug. I know this because I owned an Isetta in the 60s. The Heinkel got round the law by being able to start the engine up backwards, only possible with a 2-stroke engine.
Ha, yes, I was checking to see if anyone had already commented on this. It's a very modern motorcycle engine and gearbox. FWIW it won't have a reverse gear....

Hello! I am actually working with MDI for the AirPod. Thank you so much for sharing and acknowledge our innovation! Nevertheless, there are some things that have to be clarified. 1. The AirPod 1.0 is not from TATA Motors. As for how is mentioned, TATA Motors signed a contract with MDI, however, it was a territorial license of MDI compressed air technology where TATA is using in the known TATA Nano. 2. The AirPod 1.0 that you are showing is the first version which is obsolete. We are about to launch the second version which is somehow different from the first version. I will keep you updated if you are interested. For more information about MDI, our technology, the AirPod 2.0 and future projects, you can visit our website www.mdi.lu Have a nice week!
Fedor Fox I might not have passed 8th grade German class in Baltimore City School System, but what I did pick up has been much help later to start to learn Afrikaans. I think it was Middle German & Lower Dutch was the language of The Dutch East Indian Company who settled farmers or Boer's to supply their fleet with meat, milk, fruits and vegetables and alcohol and sugar!
Wouldn't be possible to design a car that size to look "threatening" in those era's, to begin with. The Cadillac's looked like giant rolling airships from hell, Chrysler's looked like aircraft carriers..None looked "friendly". Not even Benz or a Rolls.
When I was a little girl, my step dad bought a funny little car that looked like an airplane. Called a MESSERSCHMIDT. I asked my dad if he ever saw one. He said oh yes. We fought them in Germany in WW2. They were a fighter/ bomber. I started laughing. He said what's so funny? I said Daddy, its a car! He says really!? He hadn't seen one. It had 2 seats. One behind the other. And the roof was clear, shaped like a planes cockpit. You lifted the cockpit roof top get in. The was no way to lock it so i had to go with mom to the grocery store. People were staring at it asking all sorts crazy questions that I couldn't answer. My mom hated it. It was sold a short time later. I thought it was cute. But I didn't like being stared at. Plus it was hot in there. There was no way to cool it off while sitting inside.... No air conditioner.lol
Messerschmidt KR. 200 Cabin Scooter I actually got to see one in a aviation museum last month on display. Cute little car with a mileage of 100MPG which is ridiculous. Of course it would lower depending on the loading it was carrying ie passengers or groceries.
There were two versions of the Messerschmidt - the more popular one had three wheels, but there was also a four-wheeled one. They looked the same except that the 4-wheeled one had the back two wheels under little bubble-like mudguards at the back. I believe it was faster as well, though I only ever saw one.
Fun fact as well as getting the reversing detail wrong on the Isetta showing a FOUR stroke engine while saying it’s two stroke really does show how many of these videos are produced by people who don’t know what they are talking about.
I would love to own one of the little peel cars (No 2) I think it is fantastic but definitely only with an electric motor .. a normal engine would be deafening to drive! 🚗
Beef up the frame on 'The Pea', add reinforced carbon-fibre panels, racing seat with full harness, larger wheels & gutsier motor, & you'll have one of the craziest stunt-cars! One that will keep on rollin' when you roll it!

Live in Germany and ride regularly the Renault twizzy renting it quite cheaply. It runs around 85km/h and has a range of 80km, too. Quite minimalistic in its features it is a quick accelarator(it is fully electric) and due to missing glas or windows you might close, a perfect fun vehicle for good weather inside a city and for short tours. It is a fun ride and you have the watchers on your side. Just drove it last saturday for shopping and enjoyed it a lot, like always. Ouh and parking is quite easy and the back seat can take even a guy of 1,90m as I tried out once, cause he can stretch his legs to the left and the right of the driver in the front seat. Butterfly doors give it also some unique style when getting in and out. All in all it is a normal part of my reality, not like the rest in this video, that I will problably never see although I know the Isetta from seeing it some rare times since I live here. And I think you missed another german small one that I have still seen in the early 70s in my childhood. The Goggomobil... Greetings...
The Henkel Cabine was quite sold here in Brazil. But it ended up being forbiden. Yeah. It had some awesome features, it would never be upside down. But in case of a crash, it was fairly usual the driver lose his/her legs.
Yep, you're right! It's Renn-oh. Maybe, someone was confused about that city in Nevada. It is definitely NOT pronounced like the Nevada city, but instead, Renn-oh. Like wrench, with the silent w, and without the ch. Also, with a French, not an American, R. French has a way of not pronouncing letters, with Renault a prime example. Il y a beaucoup des mots comme ça.
When you talk about the Isetta, please note that it was never produced in Argentina. It was only imported in 1958. In 1959, De Carlo got the license from BMW, but not for the Isetta but the BMW 600, which is NOT an Isetta, at least by BMW's official denomination. After the 600, De Carlo (Metalmecánica was the factory) also produced the BMW 700 under license.
Isetta was in fact produced in Argentina's neighbouring country, Brasil, by Romi factory. It was said that it was the "first Brazilian car" but for Brazilian laws it was not considered a car, so the honour belongs to DKW. Isettas are named Romi Isettas in Brazil, first produced under Italian Iso specifications but after they turned to BMW specs.
My Father had an Isetta back in 1958-9, I don't remember anything about it because I never even rode in it, lol. If I remember correctly he just used it to drive back & forth to work.
Right now I use a bicycle with a gas engine.....but it's not Ideal since it was made for lighter people, and I weigh in at 300 lb. and has no sides or top for when it rains here in St. Petersburg, Florida USA.
herguttentag9000 I bought an Alliance used from a guy who I used to work for. Months I had no idea where the horn was & pre-Internet & not a French speaker that manual wasn't much help!! I was driving one day and I fumbled for my turn signal as I nearly was past my exit I heard the horn! It was on the stalk switch, you push in like old car's washers to push in to make them work! Beating on the center of the steering wheel did nothing.
The thing is not even proof-read.

Small cars might be the answer, Breaking News, Ford Announces by 2022 they will stop many all Car save for the Mustang and focus fully on their Trucks and SUVs. ( this isn't a joke )
I’d love to own the Bond Bug. It’d be great if you could make a part 2 to this video and include it, as well as some of the Kai cars in Japan. There’s also a Messerschmitt bubble car.
I think any of these cars would be perfect, for "you drive it" guided tours in national parks. For that application, I would recommend models that can seat 2 or more tourists. They would basically be driven like fast, long range golf carts. Being fully enclosed, would offer some protection from the featured wild life.
They used to do great videos, butanol they seem to do very little research, and use fake thumbnails. They also butchered every German word across the video...
Soon "real" cars will be taken out of citys as they are too poluting. These little bugs may be the only things that could be driven there. Less fumes, crowding, noise. Sounds like a win all round.
Allen Cohen That is the compromise of so many of the small car's we drive compared to real world vehicles that good fuel mileage is gained by doubling as a coffin!
Allen Cohen It would seem like that would be an issue, but in older versions and modern versions there were various ways to deal with safety ...in the older versions one had actual steel usually protecting but always then and now the driver and or passenger is basically surrounded first and formost by a roll cage. They are created to absob and disperse an impact before it ever reaches the occupant(s)!!! And then last and least the vehicles tend to be light weight so they are generally pushed or thrown away from the majority of the impact before ever effecting the occupant(s)! There is also in some vehicles gyroscopes in addition so if a vehicle is struck it will be pushed, thrown away, but not fall or roll over as the gyroscope will keep the vehicle upright and on it wheels!!! Actually pretty safe vehicles all the way around!!!
Some cool, some not as much. Such a pity the opposite happening in reality.. like Ford in the U.S. is going to cull smaller cars in favour of more SUV and pick-up trucks. Globally SUV are outpacing the rest of the segment in sales.
Those last 2 were the sweetest things ever, I'd love to have either one! And just a free word from a (very real, interested & ready) consumer, people want prices. & if one can be categorized as a personal mobility scooter... that's a VERY GOOD THING, cuz one not only needs not pay auto insurance, nor have a driver's license, but Medicare may pay a portion... or at least the tax:) You'd actually be surprised at some of the faster enclosed mobility scooters:) Perhaps do a video on that?
That last bit where the car was falling apart was so funny.... I have a Motorino XPN eScooter, and love my ride. I hardly ever use the car anymore, except for picking up items that are to big to carry with the scooter, or in shitty Canadian winter storm weather.
Good for people with DUI that had lost their license. That way if they crash, they only hurt them self, not others. Also the embarrassment of driving this to the club may make them think twice.
Just pointing out: When you mentioned the German Luftwaffe It is not like "Luhft-Waff". It is pronounced like "Looft- Waffa" with emphasis on the "Looft" part. Also. Engines run on fuel. Motors run on electric. The 350 in my truck is not a motor. It's an engine.
@Rodrigo and Ben Yes... well, you know, that is definitely a consideration when deciding what type of vehicle to buy --- I remember seeing an interesting gas-mileage comparison in a Shell Answer Book back in da early '80's... it pointed out that a medium-sized passenger-van actually gets the same "people-hauling" MPG as a mo-ped: the van gets ten miles per gallon but seats ten people, whereas the mo-ped gets a hundred miles per gallon but only transports one person, and so if all of the van's seats are full, both vehicles effectively use the same amount of gas to transport ten people.
I sounder..... could you put a car seat in the dam thing? Hmmm just wondering because the car before the AirPod was interesting but I’m loving the AirPod

Small cars might be the answer, Breaking News, Ford Announces by 2022 they will stop many all Car save for the Mustang and focus fully on their Trucks and SUVs. ( this isn't a joke )
OneBigBugga most will be hybrid versions also, the SUV’s & trucks.
I’d love to own the Bond Bug. It’d be great if you could make a part 2 to this video and include it, as well as some of the Kai cars in Japan. There’s also a Messerschmitt bubble car.
I think any of these cars would be perfect, for "you drive it" guided tours in national parks. For that application, I would recommend models that can seat 2 or more tourists. They would basically be driven like fast, long range golf carts. Being fully enclosed, would offer some protection from the featured wild life.
In the future, please display the equivalent metric values whenever announcing stuff like miles and MPH.
...and repeat everything in French and Spanish...
and Chinese, don't forget Chinese :)
The whole world uses a metric system, why some backward people do not understand it ?
'THE' metric system, not 'a' metric system.
multiply by 0.62, ya lazy fugger!
I love your work, I hope you keep it up!!!!! You peeps rock!!!
They used to do great videos, butanol they seem to do very little research, and use fake thumbnails.
They also butchered every German word across the video...
Very cool video. Thanks for posting and have a nice day too.
That last vehicle kind of looks like a Volkswagen van. I like it.
They may be economical, however, if a real car should hit you -- You are dead !!!
Soon "real" cars will be taken out of citys as they are too poluting. These little bugs may be the only things that could be driven there. Less fumes, crowding, noise. Sounds like a win all round.
Due to runaway population growth, you are probably right.
Obviously we will not be safe until all the "real" (oversized) cars are taken off the roads.
Allen Cohen That is the compromise of so many of the small car's we drive compared to real world vehicles that good fuel mileage is gained by doubling as a coffin!

It would seem like that would be an issue, but in older versions and modern versions there were various ways to deal with safety ...in the older versions one had actual steel usually protecting but always then and now the driver and or passenger is basically surrounded first and formost by a roll cage. They are created to absob and disperse an impact before it ever reaches the occupant(s)!!! And then last and least the vehicles tend to be light weight so they are generally pushed or thrown away from the majority of the impact before ever effecting the occupant(s)! There is also in some vehicles gyroscopes in addition so if a vehicle is struck it will be pushed, thrown away, but not fall or roll over as the gyroscope will keep the vehicle upright and on it wheels!!! Actually pretty safe vehicles all the way around!!!
Some cool, some not as much. Such a pity the opposite happening in reality.. like Ford in the U.S. is going to cull smaller cars in favour of more SUV and pick-up trucks. Globally SUV are outpacing the rest of the segment in sales.
Awesome !! Can you still purchase some of those vehicles at a reasonable rate?thank you so much for your show I really really enjoy it!!
Those last 2 were the sweetest things ever, I'd love to have either one! And just a free word from a (very real, interested & ready) consumer, people want prices. & if one can be categorized as a personal mobility scooter... that's a VERY GOOD THING, cuz one not only needs not pay auto insurance, nor have a driver's license, but Medicare may pay a portion... or at least the tax:) You'd actually be surprised at some of the faster enclosed mobility scooters:) Perhaps do a video on that?
It’s not “looft waf” it’s lufftwaffe.
Nope, not that either.
*Luftwaffe
Number ten was driven by Erkal.
I love that little cutie cartoon at the beginning!
That last bit where the car was falling apart was so funny....
I have a Motorino XPN eScooter, and love my ride. I hardly ever use the car anymore, except for picking up items that are to big to carry with the scooter, or in shitty Canadian winter storm weather.
WTF is a "Rinolt"?
I kept thinking he said microwave instead of micro car 🚗...
Hope Hampson maybe they added a microwave to the pizza car...
Good for people with DUI that had lost their license. That way if they crash, they only hurt them self, not others. Also the embarrassment of driving this to the club may make them think twice.
I wouldn't put my life on the line for car like that
I liked my own comment. Take that Society’
FIGHT THE POWER!
So many triggered Europeans, cuz you said some words wrong.
So many ignorant yanks, who would rather get all defensive than actually learn.
Most of us don't give a shit.
I feel like we should all know how to say "Renault," since those were sold in America at one point
Great video, but please include metric measurements
Sarcasm as click bait sucks. car fails is a more correct title.
Just pointing out: When you mentioned the German Luftwaffe It is not like "Luhft-Waff". It is pronounced like "Looft- Waffa" with emphasis on the "Looft" part. Also. Engines run on fuel. Motors run on electric. The 350 in my truck is not a motor.
It's an engine.
Why is the president of the Philippines watching this when he can buy he's own jumbo jet
I've seen one or two of these, but I had no idea there were so many like this and some were THAT small!
The small cars are too small for my whole big family :(
Buy mutiples
Rodigo Duterte ℓσℓ
Rodigo Duterte hi duterte
@Rodrigo and Ben Yes... well, you know, that is definitely a consideration when deciding what type of vehicle to buy --- I remember seeing an interesting gas-mileage comparison in a Shell Answer Book back in da early '80's... it pointed out that a medium-sized passenger-van actually gets the same "people-hauling" MPG as a mo-ped: the van gets ten miles per gallon but seats ten people, whereas the mo-ped gets a hundred miles per gallon but only transports one person, and so if all of the van's seats are full, both vehicles effectively use the same amount of gas to transport ten people.
Keep dick in pants....too many damn ppl
"Luft waaaf" lol That is not how it is pronounced.
I think they are great
I'm rather surprised the "Smart" (or not so smart) car wasn't part of this.
amazing stuff I subscribe
I wish I was first 😪
I sounder..... could you put a car seat in the dam thing? Hmmm just wondering because the car before the AirPod was interesting but I’m loving the AirPod
Cool mini cars you won't believe actually exist
Shows picture of a car that doesn't exist!
which one would that be?
If you're going to narrate make sure you know how to pronounce the words you're supposed to be reading.
Why is the narrator so terrible at pronouncing words correctly? And FFS, use Metric!
