Especially since for the same money you can buy a car twice the size.

On the other hand, in the Netherlands they use smarts for "ambulance" and "firetruck" and in Belgium for taxi's:

Why would it work better than a normal car in a congested city? It stil gets stuck in traffic. Or do you mean it pollutes less? I seriously hope they wont show up with one of those when I'm going somewhere with some suitcases :)

I think the ambulance has a door open :P (Actually it's a paramedic car, but ambulance sounds cooler)

Yeah, cool huh? Well, back then they were considered cool, although not many were actually sold.

ChadTower:

Still cool.  If I could find one in the $300 range I'd strongly consider it to drive around the block on.

If they made them into taxi's, then they would look exactly like the Johnny Cab from Total Recall
