Brad Hicks Thu, 05 Nov 2009 05:37:15 +0000 http://gas2.org/?p=3981#comment-12831 I'd rather drive the Fortwo. It's better looking (I think), and the reason it's so much heavier and gets half the gas mileage is that the steel cage frame is nigh-invulnerable. (Look up Smart Fortwo crash videos on YouTube, they're amazing.) On the other hand, I can't afford a Fortwo; I could afford a Nano. I’d rather drive the Fortwo.

I'd love to see the Nano more widely available. Nice. I’d love to see the Nano more widely available.

Take out the back seats and you have enough room for a battery pack. Even if unit was trashed, it is very little money lost. I wonder how much Tata would want for the glider alone? It even looks a little like the Clooney car, not so thin though!
