Make a nice golf cart...as long as you charge it at the club.

Makes a good target for pick up trucks.

“In 2010, we spent time on the supercapacitor buses that circulated the ginormous Shanghai World Expo, marveling at how convincingly they pulled from the curb with the combined weight of 50 humans on board. When the Chinese Government decreed that the site emit no hydrocarbons, BYD got the job of building electric buses. They worked faultlessly.”

Haven’t we in the US been trying electric buses here, including school buses?

By Chinese law, tech firms have to spy on people and report to the CCP. That would include the tech in your China made car.

Oh thank goodness

Something else I can’t afford

Got that $1900 Pinto Pony MPG?

I might could afford that

Since when did China worry about pollution?

The chassis is carbon fiber, which will keep the weight down – although it'll still run a heavy battery pack, which will affect outright handling.

This is a pretty info free article.

And I really didn't need the article to know the car would have a heavy battery pack.

Why anyone would buy is beyond me. Because of the battery the car will become no more than a museum piece in about 15 years when the battery dies and by then the battery will be obsolete and impossible to replace.

But if you are a billionaire maybe you can have it converted to a gasoline power train.

Bench seats were more fun in high school.

$233,000?

No thanks!

[TonyinLA]

Cool looking toy.

[IYAS9YAS]

Because BYD’s electric commuter buses have been such a success.

Looks like a slightly softer lined Lamborghini Countach, which is no surprise, as it’s designed by Lamborghini designer Wolfgang Egger. I’m sure it will be ridiculously fast, and just as ridiculously expensive.

Go to the article and look at the “split cockpit” arrangement. If it ever got T-boned occupants would be beheaded.

It looks like an autonomous lawnmower I looked at a couple weeks ago. (PS: I would never buy an autonomous lawnmower either.)

Xi takes brandon for a ride.

[wbslws]

As Klaus Schwab says “You will eat the bugs in your teeth and like it”.

[NWFree]

I bet TeslaHumper just crapped his pants

So they’ve branched out from just making underwear?

[dfwgator]

No roof? Well we know Mitt Romney won’t be buying one.
