@tikibunnyimports Yeah, but #KeiCar - #Roadsters show that a restrictive envelope breeds innovation!
One doesn't need liters of displacement to get fast and have fun!
And that makes it good, because if one has a "fun vehicle" it better not require an oversized garage to park in...
Also with a smol engine and "low" speeds everything else gets cheaper:
smaller, low speed-index all season tires are cheap even from high quality brands.
the engine barely sips fuel and oil
emissions are low and thus vehicle tax is also lower
a small vehicle that isn't commonly stolen or ran into the next tree by beginners is cheaper to insure.
Which is why I think #KeiCars are good at incentivizing #SmallCars and that more manufacturers - espechally outside #Japan - should do such vehicles!
It's really embarassing that only the #SmartK was launched as non - #JDM Kei-Car and that basically noone even tries it* despite there being enough models and options.
But I also guess that like with European Car Brands, #ServiceNetworks and coverage with branded repair shops is really what makes or breaks it for #consumers!
So small companies like #Aixam never had a chance to establish themselves and due to existing expertise inhouse none of the Kei-Car manufacturers was interested in "Badge-Engineering" anyway.
