Any idea what car this is?
At first, i thought this picture was distorted but it's not.
my friend spotted this car in kitsilano and posted it on facebook. no idea what car this is as i do not know alot of cars. this car is obviously straight from the california. looks like a one or two seaters car. i just thought this was interesting and wanted to share with you guys. *EDIT* i found it...such a fail for me : ( http://www.commutercars.com/ http://hight3ch.com/tango-car-one-se...lf-of-a-smart/ http://img801.imageshack.us/img801/6...0934955115.jpg http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/5...0935305115.jpg http://img202.imageshack.us/img202/4...0935355115.jpg |
at first I thought the first picture was disorted, but then I looked at the car behind it... and I was just like shiiittt maaann.

It's called a "Tango Electric Commuter Car"

doesn't look safe

0-60mph in 4 sec
|
$150,000 USD!?!?!
I assume there would be a profound effect on handling too due to its tall and skinny design. Lets have Clarkson test it. |
imagine a semi-trailer swooping by at 120km/h from the oncoming traffic while sitting in one of these.

second, semi's wont be going that fast in city.. |
okay fine..on boundary road when semi's drive at 80kph..that's probably still pretty scary.
|

third of all, I don't think any cars can stand that kind of impact. |
i never mentioned an impact...i was just saying how this 'car' would shake terribly when a large truck drives by in the opposite direction.
...Nevermind. |
He's talking about wind turbulence not impact guys.
Berz out. |

150 grand for that ..
|
bump. spotted it today and just read about it. this thing is apparently really safe..
http://www.commutercars.com/safety.html but coming from the site its probably slightly exaggerated. pretty impressive car imo but i wouldnt buy it LOL :p |
^ lol 150k for something that looks like it uses recycled isuzu taillights
But definitely a cool toy if you have money to blow, I can already imagine all the cars who will pull to your right at the stop light and try to pass you not knowing that your car does 0-60 in 4 secs |
