@mahmoudawwad1990: You would need a big van: the RAKe is a little bit more than 3 meter long and 1.2 meter wide, with a weight just a bit lower than 400 kg. Top speed is limited to 120 km/h and due to the extremely low center of gravity, stability is excellent. Moreover, thanks to the high sill of the vehicle, you sit in a very rigid ‘tub’ with a crush zone in the front, very similar to (safe) racing single-seaters.
@thankyou: The Opel RAK e is not a 1seater but a 2seater. It accomodates 2 people in a tandem configuration, one behind the other, ensuring optimum aerodynamic performance and energy efficiency.
im not exactly sure that i understand who this car is meant for. what advantage would this give me over my 4 seater compact sedan? better yet why would i get this instead of a 2 seater coupe? its narrower than a car but that doesnt make a difference when i need to park it. and you can't zip through traffic like a motorcycle. is it lighter weight? they didnt say anything about the weight. at a certain point you just have to admit you are only making something because you think it looks cool.
@maikeru01: The Opel RAK e is not a 1seater but a 2seater. It accomodates 2 people in a tandem configuration, one behind the other, ensuring optimum aerodynamic performance and energy efficiency. Concerning weight: it weighs 2/3 less than a normal car, about 380 kg.
@designingdesire im aware its a 2 seater. you can get 2 people in a coupe as well. you can also get two people on a motorcycle, which weighs even less than a rak e. if you want the comfort, safety and elegance just get a car. if you want the compact size, light weight, and cool looks, get a motorcycle. so again i dont see the advantage of this at all. maybe it would work in europe or asia, but there is no market for this in the US.
if it wasn't for the lack of range- i would buy it for sure- 100 km range in northern areas of europe, will dramaticly be reduced.

ok... if i saw one of those at streets ... me and my friend will pick it up and put it in the van.
and how about safety for high speeds?!!!

glad to see that your guys' video quality has greatly improved since that "atomic doubledeck"-whatever that was trying to be...
