You have an accident in this, you're dead. the crash test didn't include a big vehicle hitting you head on or sideways at speed.

It really lends credence to the term 'BUG". The old volkswagon used to be called a puddlejumper or a beetle. This one I guess you could say is somewhere in between.

Show me any standard car (not truck, 4X4, lorry, bigrig etc etc) that'll keep you alive after a head on/sideways encounter with a larger vehicle driving at cruiseing speed....

I was listening to NPR the other day, and the car producing gurus think that in the future we will all own 2 cars...one like this smart car for local running around and a larger, more sturdier regular car for going longer distances.  I'm just hoping to eventually live some place where I won't NEED a car.  (I had a mechanic here for 8 hours last night trying to fix a water pump problem I have in my '96 Pontiac Grand Am, so I can try to send my DH out looking for jobs again).

I would love to exist by walking, biking, and public transportation...central Florida is not the place for that right now.

Vampothika, if that's the car you want, and you can afford it, I say go for it!  I think I'd rather totally die in an crash in a little car, than exist with brain damage and disfiguration having to depend on others just to perform daily living activities if I survived a crash in something bigger.

Ok people but not always the bigger car is more safe of the little,  all depend by the house that produce the veichles...there are many little cars more safe of truck, 4x4 etc...is not the dimension that make the safety ;-)

This is what was left of my Rover 216 after being spun and smacked in the side by a huge dirt lorry on the motorway...
I had whiplash.

We make 'em tough over here ;)

SMART after collision with fruitfly at 2 mph:

 Well....slight exaggeration, but you get the point.

I drove a '63 VW Beetle 1300cc for years and it was the best car I ever owned except for the lack of A/C.  Besides, back then I was immortal and things like Doc shows above couldn't have happened......right?

Around here they go by a few different names...deathtrap, gocart, skate board, and POS to name a few.

I saw one with a spoiler and flames on it the other day...laughed my ass off at that one. :grin:
