Stupid. Can someone tell me any other plus side besides having zero turn radius? (can't 3 wheelers achieve this with the proper mechanics?)

Thoughts?

I would imagine that this would be for city use like downtown New York or some shit like that. There is no way those shits are hitting the interstate.

This.

It's a great idea. But they will probably cost way too much to be a logical choice. I mean look at the Smart Fourtwo. that was a great idea. Till it cost $12k. You can buy a full function car for that price. Versa, Fiesta, Aveo, Yaris. Cars that can carry more then 2 people and have the room for groceries or even a brief case, and can be driven on the interstate. Smart's should be 7-10k.

If you can scoop these EV-V's up for like <5k. I bet they would be a hit in places like NY, Chicago, LA etc.
