The Obvio! is a very green almost zero emission car developed by Lotus Cars as a lightweight, petite, and green alternative to the gas guzzlers. With a monocoque integrated aluminum chassis design compositing a passenger safety cell that uses “Niess Elliptical Survival Rings,” the high-performance car instantly becomes a microsport vehicle with comfortable seating for three. The Obvio! also features laminated safety glass tinted windows along with front and side impact airbags that provide additional protection. Capable of running on any percentage of ethanol, NCG (natural compressed gas) or gasoline in any combination, the Obvio! can muster a top speed over 100mph giving a fuel economy of 12.5 Km/Liter (29.40 MPG) in urban driving and 17.3 Km/Liter (40.69 MPG) on the highway. But the best feature of the Obvio! undoubtedly has got to be the fact the slim car can fit lengthwise into most parking spots which makes parking a real breeze. With a target price of $14,000, the Obvio! is certainly comes out as a strong eco-friendly car for the future.

In some Cities and States they will work great where as in others they better stay off the road. I love the concept as I believe many do with gas prices so high. Hopefully some Corporation can get it together all the way around. I like this car its so cute, unique and looks like a Smart cars. Probably I will write about this on my Autopartswarehouse.com Blog.
Very cute car. Yeah! It will surely fit in any parking area. But I don’t like the color, it’s so intense. But being an eco-friendly car, this is we needed for the future.
