Well, the reason we need larger cars is because we’ve got larger parking spaces and we have to fill them up… Wouldn’t it look really dumb to have an Isetta sitting in a parking spot designed to accommodate a crew cab Ford 150?
I’m curious how the Elio would compare to a three-wheeled motorcycle, with the two wheels in the rear. Obviously there is a safety issue given there are no side panels or roof but how does the drag coefficients compare.
I find the lack of any sort of mention of CAFE standards incentivizing automakers to make larger vehicles that fall under laxer truck fuel economy standards a bit disappointing. Yes american consumer choices are partially why cars have bloated to ridiculous sizes lately but the other side of that coin is the legislation that has pushed automakers to also build bigger

Really we're just making the most efficient use of space.
