This car doesnt sound too exciting. Its top speed is 65 mph so it would basicially be for city travel and not highway seeing as highway speeds can get up to 75 mph

Car retails for roughly $2500 in India, but will cost $8000 here due to safety and emissions standards.

See, this is why Bush rejected the Kyoto treaty and other pollution standards. We are getting fucking in the ass by third world countries. Countries like China and India are rapidly industralizing and running us out of business because no one's holding a gun to THEIR heads over emissions standards. Well, someone should. If the choice is between 1 billion Chinese people languishing in poverty and 1 billion shittily made Indian cars driving down Chinese roads and polluting the fuck out of MY planet, then I choose for the Chinese to languish in poverty.

Because ugly cars are "eco-friendly" cars

I just don't see why we can't make an eco-friendly car that's not shaped like a suppository.

There have been eco friendly cars that look normal but people don't buy them, they want people to know they are driving an eco friendly car.
