As a designer familiar with these little battles, I’m almost certain that Muji really just wanted to call it “car” and Nissan’s lawyer’s wouldn’t let them since they couldn’t TM it and made them add the 1000.

What’s the most recently sold van in the US with a flat front?

Can any of these go on the highway?

Unicycles. That’s the future.

I like airbags.

I never liked the headlights on these. Could never fall in love with this car.

At that price - drive it for awhile (if you can) and give up when the repair bills overwhelming.

Unless there are huge advancements in aeronautical engineering, just assume uber is trying to raise their stock value.

Goddamn. I got one of these for a rental once. First they gave me a chevy aveo, and I sent it back, and this was the other option. What an absolute stale oatmeal of a car.

You’re a right little ray of sunshine.

They deleted the tweet because they knew you’d write an article about it then. Mystique and intrigue and all that jazz.

It’s like someone slammed the lid too hard and squished the headlights and grille.

...I like it.

how were the repair bills? I occasionally consider buying one myself, but i’m afraid of endless time in the shop.

They should have left the bullet holes. Maybe fix the upholstery with ‘X” stitches where the bullets pierced it. I mean if the car is restored completely, what’s the point? I can buy the same car for 1000 bucks and claim whatever I want about it.

I love these little compact sedans. wish there were more cars in that shape available in the US.

They might want to put rubber wheels on it.

errr... these renderings look a bit silly. and interior materials look cheap.

I speak Italian, you can expect it in 2031.
