Seems like a golf cart would crumple it in a crash but otherwise, cool car.
Great car, great review! Would you maybe have access to a Smart Roadster in the US? It‘s somewhat similar to the AZ-1 in style and not much bigger, and it‘s the perfect continuation of the Smart Car idea, but unfortunately it was short lived… https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_Roadster The terrible automated gearshift aside it was great. I‘m 191cm tall and I fit into one… electrifying one of those would be an absolute dream, if there only was space for the batteries…
We’ve got a few years to go until they can be imported sadly
Is Jacob's Reliant Robin video somewhere to be found?
Maybe eventually. He didn't do video things with it, but I think his friend did
One clarification, the horsepower limit isn't a legal restriction like the other requirements. It was a gentleman's agreement between the manufacturers like they did with their sports cars around the same time
Also, if you still have access to the car, I would love to see you go through the drive thru of a fast food restaurant and order, pay for and receive a meal.
You missed a very important thing in post. "I do fit in it... If I duck" And a quick "quack!" as the door closes.
Every Ford Festiva guy will be quick to tell you that their car has the same climate control panel as the AZ-1.
This reminded me of my very first car, which was a Peugeot 106. Gigantic in comparison to this, but still, being over 6' tall.. small European cars are not designed for tall people. Leg / foot cramps came as standard issue. I was happy to see the back of that thing when I was finally able to get a replacement.
Until the very end, especially when you said it was a donor car, I thought this is now your car.
Welp. I guess that means I can look forward to commenters asking me about "my Autozam" for at least the next three years
I have sat in the back of one of the boxy kei cars, and boy was it spacious! I had my feet on the floor without my knees being in the air. And I am slightly taller than Robert.
Height (of the car) is a surprisingly important factor
Yessssss
woot woot! One of my absolute favourite Youtubers!
