My only issue with the car is that the miles per gallon isn't as good as you would expect from a car that small. Combine the idea and technology with a hydrogen cell or lithium battery to pump up the mpg, and you have yourself a small car movement.

It still doesn't meet large car demands, but it has enough going for it to be a second car consideration for most families, I think, especially if families are thinking about buying cars for their kids (used or new).
