Ford Berliner Concept, 1968. An electric city car prototype created by designers at Ford of Europe and first presented at  Ford of Europe in Cologne before appearing at the 1969 Geneva Motor Show. Although it was only 2.13 metres long it could seat 2 adults and 2 children, the batteries were stored under the seats.

Can't make a robot/Transformers version of Stray without including his close companion Dullahan, my "headless" skeleton from @leytale. A robot without a head is a bit awkward (brain modules and all that) so I gave him no face instead!

He's a minibot so he's a smoll.

why do disabled people have to pay for public transportation??? Most can't drive or don't own a car.

the veterans here (and even working army officers) get a discount on the ticket and the elderly don't pay, why do we have to be excluded???

Yet another reminder that Electric Cars won’t save us, the only way forward to sustainable transportation is to end car dependency all together and transition to pedestrian oriented neighborhoods and cities with ample access to Public Transit. People deserve the choice, People shouldn’t HAVE to buy a car just to survive… certainly not on the richest, most developed, bestest, and free-est nation to ever exist; also one that America was almost literally built on Railroads and those were demolished to build highways for motor companies and the military starting after WW2

Your goofy-ass Tesla ain’t doing shit to solve the real problems bud, the issues that people still would practically be required to buy a car just to live a decent life. Coercion isn’t Freedom.

I found a good price for a room but I am so nervous about it. I hate big life changes and I am completely in control of this one, and we live a changing world (read: shit economy) so 'right' answers are so hard discern. I'm real nervous abt it

Enfield 8000, 1974. An electric city car that was developed by Isle of Wight company Enfield Automotive, owned by Greek millionaire Giannis Goulandris. The prototype and early production were built on the Isle of Wight before Goulandris moved operations to the Greek Island of Syros. In total 120 cars were built with 65 used by the Electricity Council and electricity boards in the south of England. The project failed not least because the cars cost as much as a new Rover 2200, also the range was limited to 40 miles but could drop to 15 in cold weather.
