Saw this and thought this would be a good commuter for work

What are peoples opinions as My comute to work is 7 miles each way

I think it'll be ok in the rain and the cold - you're fairly well protected - but I'm not so sure about everybody else's fumes in stop-start traffic. Regular face fulls of lorry exhaust will become wearing over time.

Like Chris Harris says ( http://youtu.be/Ngp9mDVQ8N4) it'll clean up on the mediterranean islands. I look forward to renting one.

I suppose it really depends what your commute's like.

I'd go with the Electric Smart personally

The twingo looks "fun" however

There'd be more dignity in cycling to work... on a unicycle... wearing clown shoes.

Hysterics Bam, hysterics...

small print - you have to rent the battery at £60/month

£60 a month's ok as long as it doesn't start creeping up. One review said it would cost about a quid every night to recharge too.

It's a shame that it's classed as a quad and not a car. It doesn't get as many government subsidies and (I'm guessing) any years of no claims won't transfer to a beginners first proper car.
