Safest and fastest seem possible, but I'm rather doubting its off road capabilities. Unless of course being capable of driving off road isn't something we expect from an SUV these days.
It's only available in a small handful of cars and only works on certain roads. I have no doubt that one of these super-cruisers will be surprised by something and crash into it once they start racking up miles. Driving is dangerous.
I wouldn't trust anyone crazy enough to build this contraption to evaluate how safe it is. I mean, it's probably fine for him, but you wouldn't want your [stereotypical poor driver of choice] to be driving it on a wet day.
This is awesome. But nobody’s going to buy it if they have to drive it sharing the road with hulking SUVs. It’s nearly as dangerous as a motorcycle simply because it is so small and light. The only advantage is protection from the weather.
I love the look of this thing and I'd love to own one. Unfortunately I live in America and there are very few places that I'd actually feel safe driving one of these. I live in Austin, TX and I wouldn't risk my life on the road in something like this. I wish it wasn't that way but unfortunately it is.
It'll be interesting to see how they can sell this as anything other than a kit car. Kit cars do not get held to the same standards as a manufactured vehicle, but you have to put it together or pay a shop to do it. Plus, you know, they are pretty deadly in accidents.
