As subcompact as it gets - Angkor 333-2010
I saw the photo of this this morning on Yahoo and ran into a couple of other stories about it. A mechanic from Cambodia designed and built it himself and hopes to mass produce it. He claims that it has telepathically operated doors.

It's definitely not an xA or an IQ. If you look at the door shape, he would have had to do some serious body work to change the shape of the leading edge of the door. One of the stories mentioned that the body is fiberglass. The only mention of engine was that his first iteration (with this one being his third) was built around a moped engine.
The man who built it also built this Jeep looking electric vehicle with a huge solar panel for the roof: .jpg) http://musclassic.blogspot.com/2009/...nergy-car.html http://www.bt.com.bn/en/science-tech...kor-wonder-car |
