The Tango

Commuter Cars Corporation is delivering its first batch of 100 Tangos starting with actor George Clooney. Currently carrying an astronomical $85k price tag, the company expects the Tango will cost a still heady $20k once it enters commercial production.

At a remarkably narrow 39inches, the Tango presents and unusual profile on the road. Despite its diminutive size, it is a monster on the road. Its electric motors can drive the vehicle up to 150mph and can accelerate it from 0 to 60 in 4 seconds.

A 130km range and 8 foot length make the vehicle a commuter's dream.

They need to come down on the price. I expect even at the $20k level the company will find few takers. If they can lower it to around $10k, I can see a lot more demand for it. The other thing going against it are the monster SUVs on the American road which keep many drivers from even considering a small vehicle over fear of wrecks.
