@davidho I made the personal rule at one point of "It is big enough if I can fit a 50-pound dog in the cargo area." Having the dog in the passenger seat proved difficult. That is the reason why I ended up with an eGolf instead of a Chevy Bolt.

There is a genuine need for safety. Therefore this gadget is officially not a car.
However it would fit for most needs, and together with an appropriate speed limit in urban areas it is definitively an alternative to the monster trucks. -

@davidho some people put the car into the camper truck

@davidho skiing

I wind up with kind of the opposite reaction: At that point, why not rather get a bakfiets, or even just a shopping bag on wheels to bring on the tram?
But I guess my perspective is influenced by not having owned a car for over a decade, and instead renting a van for bulky stuff and "normal" cars for trips w/friends/family a couple of times a year.

Driving one of these on roads with SUVs driving alongside would be terrifying.

If I lived in a city, and that city had efficient, functional public transport I probably wouldn't have a car to begin with.

@davidho we have to put two car seats in the back so we were forced to size up to a fiat 500. It works!!

kinda partial to the KR 200

@davidho I absolutely love these cars... I mean just look at this thing

Sadly they don't pass today's ncap crash test!

@davidho As a very tall person (6'8"), I was going to disagree, but having looked closer at the car, I think I'd fit brilliantly in that, so I agree entirely!
That genuinely looks like a car I could fit comfortably in, which is not something I can say about pretty much every other car out there.

@ReggieHere @_RyekDarkener_ @davidho Also, any safety concerns people are having with smaller cars means that they don't give a shit about cyclists or pedestrians, unless they plan to only allow cars on motorways.

@davidho I'd drive a Mini Cooper if it weren't for the Airstream I need to tow
@devlord There is a very small Airstream, made of fibreglass instead of steel -- Bantam? Forget the name now. Possibly not made anymore. I know I considered it for use with a Wrangler. I've heard very different numbers for MINI's towing capacity, from zero to a tonne; I'd ask a dealer, directly. And if you do it, have the dealer put the tow package in, not some sketchy after-market job.
There used to be trailers made for Bugs, so I'm sure it's possible.
