and the doors still open and close and open again 8O

These cars will do well in the US. Pizza delivery and couriers alone could make this car plentiful on the streets. They already have air conditioning and automatic transmission shifting in Canada. They also have side airbags and full size passenger and front airbags. Things like air/particulate filter options are nice features. No I am not a salesman, they are just very popular in some places in Canada and I almost bought one; stuck to bicycle instead. Some Canadian cities are making special prime parking spots for them because they take less room.

That's pretty remarkable, especially given that you're not very likely to ever drive into a concrete wall at 70mph...
