Re: [FairfieldLife] A pretty cool car, and it's from India
I'm seeing smart cars all around town and the smaller Toyotas, Hondas and KIAs being driven. If it gets crash tested so it can be sold in the US it will get sold here. I live in a refinery town and my guess the company engineers are the ones who buy these first. :-D On 05/13/2014 07:34 AM, TurquoiseBee turquoi...@yahoo.com [FairfieldLife] wrote: Go figure.

Seems like it wouldn't pass a crash test, unless significantly modified. No front bumpers even.

Re: [FairfieldLife] A pretty cool car, and it's from India
At $10K US it would cost too much for a simple car especially if the trikke car (Elio) is going to sell for less than $7K. As for crash tests people do ride around on motobikes and mopeds. A few mods might make it pass but how much energy does it use to pump it up? The reason that smart cars haven't exactly taken off is their mileage is not that much difference from something like a Toyota Yaris.

RE: [FairfieldLife] A pretty cool car, and it's from India
Sometimes when traveling by car, I'd have the CB radio turned on. It was always funny to hear truckers referring to little cars like these, should they get in an accident, as becoming a paper weight Come to think of it, the CB radio is quite an enduring technology. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, rick@... wrote : Seems like it wouldn’t pass a crash test, unless significantly modified.
