UdderlyOffroad Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Love it! I think it's a Kei car. Probably still has better ergonomics than a Defender There's something about Japanese TV adverts....(warning hooky copy content) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnaLRbbc-54 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanuki Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Produce a scaled-up 3-door van version, fit it with 4x4 and the engine from a Honda S2000 and it could be fun. There again, some of the "Kei" cars are amusing: constrained by engine-capacity/BHP and llength/width rules the Japanese stuff them with mad technology - permanent 4-wheel-drive, a 3-cylinder DOHC 599cc turbo lump with *five* valves per cylinder, adaptive electronic suspension and three electronic diff-locks and the result is a mad go-kart of a vehicle (once you remove the speed-limiter). I've driven a 'de-restricted' Mitsubishi Minica ZZ-4. Probably the ultimate city-car, though when you're really having fun and keeping the revcounter above 7000 you're only doing 22MPG. http://www.autospeed.com.au/cms/article.html?&title=Mighty-Minica-ZZ4&A=2705 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
