It's called Th!nk City, and it's a small electric car.
Acctually kind of nice to drive, arond town. Very quiet, calm car.
The company that make it was bought by Ford, and Ford are now shutting down production, so from now on, I can't participate in Import/Domestic discusions

Actually, technology is not a strength of imports. They simply stood on the shoulders of Detroit in that aspect. Most modern advancements in today's cars were American. How about GM, who was the pioneered front wheel drive, fuel injection, automatic transmissions and airbags. And when did they do that? By the 1970's. Yes, Cadillacs were mass-produced with all of those things by 1972. What was the latest and greatest ORIGINAL idea that came out of Japan? I think it was Toyota's "built-in obselescense" that was started circa 1993 that features parts that are designed to fail and require expensive replacement at higher mileage. And the parts are ony dealer-serviceable. How's that for innovation? Going back to Detroit: Magnetic ride control on the new 'Vette and Caddys. Suspension that can be as stiff and responsive, and in 1 1000th of a second. And the price is affordable. Reliability? Don't beleive the advertising. Based on FACT, there are significantly more American cars actively registered that were purchased over the last 20 years. Detroit sold more cars than the imports, so even after the sales figures were adjusted, the car-sold to still-registered ratio is in favor of Detriot. When was the last time you saw a government owned or comercially driven Japanese car? You could never use a Camry as a taxicab because it could never withstand that kind of abuse. And last, keep in mind who taught the Japanese how to build cars. Detroit.
