GM build a Locost :D

Looks like GMs latest vehicle has a little of the Locost philosophy in it

They've even saved the price and weight of at least one more wheel.

ehem that looks like a drag racing wheel chair and about as safe as one

I think I'd rather just use a small motorbike or even a scooter. It's not even going to be able to filter through traffic jams being so wide. Why would anyone choose that over a bike?

Bit like the Labour party. We intend to do this, then this, and all will be solved; aren't we good; THEN do nothing about it.

That'd explain why it says Segway on the front next to GM.

I wonder if they have even considered the impact of hitting a pot hole in that stupid thing?
