Bubble cars are making a comeback
The bubble car design is set for another comeback in the form of the Microlino EV being built in Italy, The original bubble cars were everywhere in my youth & I have fond memories of them.
These updated versions of the city/urban runarounds have 24,000 orders placed for them already. https://electrek.co/2022/01/07/micro...ming-in-march/

Having seen how the Italians drive in major Cities, these will be a massive hit, when parking on City streets, the Italians 'nudge' the other parked cars to create a space!! Everyone leaves the handrake off so the othe car can push them to create enough room!!!

I’ve just bought a ‘17 Citroen c1, so cheap to run. It’s as close to a bubble car I want to go.

I remember my grandad's reaction when my brother in law said that he was going to buy a Messerschmitt
He was ready to dive for cover!!!

LOL My uncle had the Messerschmitt model, I thought it was the dogs doodahs back then when he took me for a ride in it. I'm loving this colour of the Microlino
