If only?
If Alec Issigonis had been able to get something into production fifty years ago imagine where we would be now?
Interesting
Way ahead of the world. Now being left behind 😂
How tf did this exist back then??
lol that thing is a deathtrap. The Smart Car is not, the smart is a mini tank.
Aren’t all cars deathtraps, as a possibility tho
Idk, chassis for electric vehicles had to be strengthened for the weight of the batteries
"That thing is a deathtrap." Says the one who probably drives an SUV, which kills most people throughout the U.S. unlike small electric cars, like the one in the film which probably kills almost nobody.
Electric cars. Nah. They'll never catch on.
