Lyym6854yYes.... And I love it. It's so cute. Not very practical for overly tall people, but very cool
-
NoMad136194y@Lyym haters gonna hate 😜 I recently turned into a celebrity here, so yeah, someone has been hating on me.
-
theuser47874yConcept cars are generally boring cause they're never gonna actually be available to anyone, so its just marketing.
Also, no 15 year old is gonna go into that, cause its ugly. -
NoMad136194y@Lyym 🤔seems that someone wrote a bot. Every time I post something, it gets a -1 automatically. And as soon as I post something new, it removes the last downvotes and moves it to the latest comment/post. 🤔 Wtf?
@C0D4 did you make a prank bot? -
theuser47874y@NoMad More power to you, but I think it looks ugly (which can possibly be explained with cost savings) In any case, I can also see that its being made for leasings, presumably in cities. The japanese know very well that this is a bad idea because a small, compact car will add just as much traffic queues as a giant Tesla does. Motorcycles and electric scooters don't.

Root797344yTop speed of 30mph?
City streets here have speed limits between 35 and 55. I believe going too slowly can actually net you a ticket because you’re endangering traffic. So you’re either going to piss off other drivers, or other drivers and the traffic cops.
Range of 60 miles?
A two hour battery doesn’t sound very useful.
At least it isn’t quite as hideous as a “smart car.” 🤢
I could see it working for dense inner city driving where there is so much traffic you’re never going faster than like 15. But that two/three hour limit is still going to get you stuck. -
Root797344y@NoMad That is hilarious. Though I did just upvote that -1 comment so maybe it doesn’t autoremove the downvote?
You could get it downvote banned by posting like 10 comments in a day. 🤷🏻♀️
Then again if I wrote one I’d have it use ten different accounts. -
NoMad136194y@Root all you say is fair, but this is not a "car" car. It's mostly to replace scooters. Meaning that you're going few blocks away for shopping.
I'd actually be interested if this comes with self-driving (which I assume is the main purpose of the phone usage) for when you want to go drinking a few blocks away at night. -
NoMad136194y@Root the only person up voting that comment so far is you. It's weird, it went -1, then you upvoted and I posted a new comment, then the downvotes there disappeared and I had a new -1 on a different comment. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Someone is going to lengths. (or, this is a glitch in the system. Idk.)
Oh, also, I assume they can't write an actual even listener so they have to have a cron job to check new comments which can justify if the downvotes actually happen based on time intervals but tbh as such a celebrity I cbf checking that 😜 -
@Root imagine tryna get down the highway in that thing. Plenty of roads here in nc where 70 is a minimum, and you'll get passed by cars doing 80 lmao

NoMad136194yBot talk::
oh, he's getting aggressive!
Alright, I take it back. It's not a bot. Clearly someone has way too much time on his hand. -
I guess? I have three bicycles that are electric, haul groceries, go 30mph and have a range of > 100mi.
It doesn't really seem innovative to me. -
NoMad136194y@SortOfTested but they don't drive you home when you're drunk 😜 I'm looking forward to the self-driving branch of this.
-
NoMad136194yAll things considered tho, in cities like Sydney this will cost a fortune to recharge so often tho 🤔
-
C0D4669444y@NoMad I'm offended you would think I would -- you 😞
Nope, not me or my bots doing it, they don't touch the doots. -
NoMad136194y@C0D4 maybs not cruel, but defo capable.
Side note, my computer just went to hell. I can't help with the translator bot. 😞
Has anyone seen the concept car Citroën is working on? It's called Ami One.
It's exciting!
