Micro cars are the need of the world now.
When will it come to India?
I don't see why most of the EVcars cost so much and why don't the companies in the US don't offer more choices, THEY DON'T HAVE A MOTOR OR TRANSMISSION SO THEY SHOULD COST LESS ‼️
You missed the information about “Baojun” you don’t mention the speed limit ! You only exposed European brands it’s pretty much visible that YOU’RE AFRAID consumers could realize that Chinese and Indian Brands will dominate EV Market ! Better prices for mobility ! Consumers by this stage majority they don’t give a S…about lixuries fussy brands it’s all about the wallet ! India and China please hurry up !
I really like all of these…especially the VW bug look a like! Is Toyota offering anything in this size yet like an electric Yaris?
I had a '71 Super Beetle with automatic stick shift. I'd love to have this new electric version, but VW, don't pimp it out and ruin the classic Bug look like you did when you redesigned the van.
Yep we are all going to have to Live in Noddyland Concepcion City Boundaries Car tracks Free paid out your Taxes
This micro car price 6000 Euro is expensive
Upcoming in india . Welcome in india ❤️❤️❤️❤️
These micro cars could get smaller if you take the seat out and make people stand up while they're driving. Or how about driving while sitting on the Hood wearing raincoat
European voice, mostly European and Chinese cars! And stupid imperial units!
For goodness sake get a grip! There's a reason why the entire planet is on metric… Except for 2 countries!! Oops! Thumbs down
Some improvement in English would be nice… Thank you.
I like the eKafer, the vw up, the microlino and the Honda …..will keep reviewing which are the best in the uk. Worries about import tax and compatibility
electric cars have everything, except enough electricity. There will be shortage in electricity in the near future (in Germany) and those cars will be the first to have a supply cut.
I like the baby buggy.
Fucking robot voices. Invest in a real narrator eh cheapskates ?
⚘🕊❤🍀❤⚘🕊
useless cars running toxic batteries with a five year life that will poison landfills for years after the car is dead. The microcar market is flooding Europe with these poison pills
Give me BYD anyway.
Going in the right direction small electric cars. intelligent transport doesn't have to be bigger gas guzzling cars nor a big deal status symbol !
I dont like these "futuristic" designs. Just because they are electric doesnt mean they cant have a sporty look to it
EV are coming very rapidly. Thanks loads for the video
