Obviously none of us will ever buy it but it is interesting to see that some companies are going for cheaper and cheaper cars.
Can we put a proceed on this thing?

MSNBC reported that the 33-horsepower engine will be capable of 80 mph.

What! a whole 33-horsepower. Omg acceleration must be neck breaking. Imagine their Sports car version. 66 horsepower!

So how can a 33 horsepower engine to 60MPH? Is that in neutral going down a very steep hill with the wind at your back? Can you imagine what that must sound like waaaaaaaaa.

I am doing that, and also the factory tour. I wanted to get some pics of the child slave labor for Revlis. I hear they do a mean spot weld!

dmboone25 · 06-11-2007, 07:11 PM

I wonder what kind of gas mileage it gets....

niftyhawk · 06-11-2007, 07:39 PM

That car will be a substitute to the following vehicle called "auto rickshaw".. and would be far more safer.
