It's called the Nice MyCar and the makers claim it can comfortably seat two adults. The car was penned by Giugiaro of Italdesign, is manufactured in Hong Kong, and is set to go on sale in the UK later this year with a starting price of £8,995 (approximately $17,945). To keep costs and weight down, the MyCar is constructed from fiberglass reinforced plastic on a steel tubular spaceframe with tubular roll-bar. It also has disc brakes and independent front and rear suspension.
The driving range is roughly 40 miles in normal city driving and top speed is rated at 40mph with re-charge time between six and eight hours. Emissions free, the MyCar will be exempt from a number of taxes and congestion charges across Europe and running the car will cost only a few cents per mile in electricity.
Standard equipment includes electric windows and mirrors, MP3-CD stereo and 14in alloy wheels. Optional extras include a glass roof or removable fiberglass version, plus bigger 15in alloys and heated/cooled leather seats.

Guigiaro must have had a pretty heavy night before he designed this. Either that or they didn't pay him enough. From a company that designs exotics I would expect MUCH better.
