Makes life more complicated off-road, but I'd be OK with a 3 wheeler like this for on-road use.
Elio talks about crash testing this platform.... many of the new small cars today perform pretty well.... obviously a different price point on the Tesla, but it has stood up very well in real world crashes (I stood beside a Tesla in a store parking lot - that is a tiny car !).... modern materials and advanced design techiques can get pretty good crash performance out of these small platforms.
Point understood though.... while I do ride a street motorcycle, I also appreciate driving my 1 ton !

Since when is a Tesla a tiny car? I'd call it closer to a midsize or even full size car.
