… and you can drive one straight onto a Luas. Sweet.
Great, can look forward to that on the footpaths now as well as them blasted scooters.
We need more cars like this and fewer massive SUV-type vehicles on the road.
Yer never fecking happy lads are ye?? Cars too big, cars too small. Make up yer minds will ye.

I really like it; it’s a pity, though, that it tops out at 45 km/h.
The pope mobile has gone commercial
You need to put it in ‘H’
They’re cool, but you’ll still be stuck in traffic if you’re driving one around a city. Top speed is 45kph 💀.
Just buy an ebike and a raincoat.
Seen a few of them about Belfast recently, they would be handy for flying around the city
They expect so few people to buy this that they don’t bother with the accounting error level expense to make a right hand drive variant for the market.
Did the car write this post?
Think they are pretty cool for someone who lives in a city, perfect for a short commute and bit of shopping
great for people who live and work in citys,i have this image of that video of jermey clarkson in the citroen being overtaken in the lorry and it wobbling from side to side as someone drives one of these down the m50
I saw loads of these in Nice and Amsterdam. In Amsterdam they are even allowed to drive in the bike lanes and on to the ferry river crossings with all the bikes. Honestly I think they are cute
Looks like it belongs in maro kart
It’ll only suit a small amount of people but for those people it’s amazing value
I fucking love it. I’d look like an absolute twat in one but I’d love to take it for a spin.
Talk about roomy!
As someone who had to pick either a house or a car this would be ideal for me. I just need a car to go to work in and honestly I’m not that much of a car guy. It’s cheap low tax and electric, what else is there to love about it?
Can’t wait to see them on the motorway. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|facepalm)
Motors getting robbed almost everywhere in Cork at the moment but can’t imagine the scrote wannabes taking one of these and doing wheelies up the Northside before the obligatory final stage of burning out. They would be too mortified and 45 km max ain’t exactly the fastest getaway either lol
I actually like it (though it’s a dull alternative to the Honda E) may be handy on the city streets, at least it would be bloody easy to park in the multistorey car parks
Do you find something comical about my appearance when I’m driving my automobile?
As a guy who drives a mobility scooter, I love the idea of this! Why the motor tax though? Thought fully electric had no motor tax or did that change?
I saw these all over Italy and they are perfect for living in a city or any big town.
They are perfect for people who normally rely on public transport or bikes (like when it’s raining)
They should sponsor Ammi Burke to drive one from Mountjoy to visit Enoch and then follow her trip to the high court to appeal something, a spin to the Dail with the Mammy and the likes, film her life like a Made in Chelsea type show. We’d all watch it.
