I think this is the direction we're going to go in. Low cost to buy, low cost to operate, and takes up very little room to park and drive.
However, it absolutely NEEDS windows that roll up and down. You have to be protected from the elements. And you need to be able to lock your stuff inside. I wish they said how fast it'll go, and how far.
I agree with you. I would like on to drive to work. I think if they get it right and the price is good, we will see many of these on the road and less gas-powered cars.
80Kph maximum speed, but one could change the gearing to make it go 10kph faster.
Agree need windows.
i love the box randomy crossing the road
technology these days huh?

Fun little car... kind of. Last time I checked it went by the name of Renault Twizy. I owned it for about 6 months. Range is about 100km max, speed 60 or 80km/h, suspension is hard like a F1 car, acceleration is decent but not amazing. The fact that is not sealed and there is no ventilation means that toxic exhaust gasses from conventional vehicles enter easy and stay long, especially in heavy traffic. It basically strips the feeling of comfort and protection you might be used to when driving a normal car. So you decide if that's fun or not.
How much did you get it for?
Price...???

I almost like it until he mention “No Windows”... Wait,What??
yeah, it burst my judgement as well.
@yerowww666 That is where the citroen ami comes in. It will be cheaper than the twizy and have full weather protection.
gosh with all the sand and dust in Arizona, No windows means No thank you.
This scooter car is actually from Renalut-Nissan, which is a joint company. It's the next gen of their most affordable electric car. There is also a version with a window.
We will see a lot of those cars in the large cities around the world, because it's perfect for car sharing apps.
yeah, it's a rebadged renault twizzy.

It's kind of interesting that in the EU, this is Renault, but in US this is Nissan. It's all OK, since it's the same company with different brands. I guess the people in US prefer to see Nissan on cars, and Europeans like Renault more. In any way,more electric cars is better for everybody who likes clean air.

epSos.de it's also a Nissan in Japan . 🤓

Put some side windows in it - geniuses.
There's a real world outside your design studio.
hwahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahaaaaaaa
I'm not usually into little cars but I have to say I absolutely love this little thing I want one..!!!!!👍👍
These things need to become a thing everywhere sooner rather than later.
just order one and excited to receive it. hopefully will be cool
Hey u said u had ordered yours were did u order yours from and have u actually got it
How much
did anyone see the box move at 2:26
Zayvin Moore toy story 2
Hahahaha
I caught that too, I was wondering if it was one of those Amazon Drones I heard about. LOL
nice
It's the wind powered IKEA vehicle that doesn't have wheels.
You just fold it up into a flat pack with an iPhone app when you get to your destination.
Need one now
I NEED This!
I want a to see one up close so I can measure for a Turbo Hyabusa engine swap. We don't get Renault Twizys here tho.
instablaster
I wish they'd sell these in the US. In Europe it's called a twizzy and goes 55-60mph max (I think). LOVE IT! so many cool cars across seas that can't be sold here. That sucks.
Fantastic design. Really good.
Wow... I love this car.. Wow pretty cool... Hope we have that here in Philippines soon
Nice car, but not a good review. Next time, more of the car - less of the people. Just a suggestion... thanks.
ya what the hell
Haha yeah, they seem more concerned with people noticing them than the ride quality, reliability, etc., of the car.
Usually means the vehicle isn't that impressive.
reliability... it's a Renault so ...
Michael Cody Moore thats what I was thinking. We are hear to learn specs not a talk show.
I like the box that was zooming across the street when she pulled it out of the garage. Is that a previous model?
Just hoping they don't collide!

I think that was "Snake" from a certain video stealth game who uses cardboard boxes to supposedly get past enemies.
Like tremendously well built
It looks like a great test bed vehicle .San Francisco is a Great Location to test this concept vehicle,good luck.
Looks exactly like a Renault Twzy
Larry Bundy Jr It is a Renault twizy but bc of nissan and renault merging its the same platform
Yes
It is a twizy just re badged
Renault owns Nissan, therefore, it is probably re-badged
It's actually a rebadged Renault Twizy. Saw lots of them for rent in Marseilles (That's in France, Europe for Americans. Lol).
Jack F Actually it was the Scoot Coupe when I saw it in Paris around 2000-2002.
@@motorcop505 nope, in europe it's called the renault twizy and it's classified as a "scootmobile"
Works great in the rain too.
Want one now

I wanna drive this to school 😂
The Least Informative Video I've Seen In Months.
Nice Mobility

ikr
It's a scoot, a Renault and a Nissan
+ChazzFTW i know dont worry ma tlet hake ktir ya m3allem
Renault owns 43.4 % of Nissan
That would explain why Nissans quality has gone to the crapper
2:24 it's Galfield!!
HEHHE
GTPlays it was i swear its the same city they made the movie in
Wow Amazing Scoots
Just love this!
Could you give us a hint of how fast it goes, range, something useful?
Top speed is around 50, range 60 Miles on flat terrain
Mc Rambro I heard speeds were 25 max on another video. Are there other models that can go faster ?
@@HalfAMind Google says 30 mph with range of 25 miles before you abandon it
Is it really $159?
@@HalfAMind it's actualy a renault twizy and there is a 30mph and a 50mph version
Did you see the box scoot across the road
Urban Taint thats a cat
Vă rog să dați prețul an română
just wondered if it was full of needles or human scat

That could of been used for windows with some duct tape.
So nice
Windows that go up, & enclosure underneath are a Must!!
I want one but I live in Canada, I'll just double the long lohns.
2:25 there a box moving lol
Random Dude Toy story 😁😂😂

Lovely bike
it looks cool
some details maybe.. speed it can reach? how many miles per charge? how long it takes to charge?
It has a top speed of 56 mph and a 125 mile journey
@@all4dogstrainingrehabilita79 Oh good, does it allows to run on public roads ,high way... in Texas
It seems like a lot just to turn the car on :/
This is a great idea
What is the prize please
That twizy copy is nice, but the cardboard box is faster and cheaper
Its TWIZZY ! Nissan / Renault Twizy

It's a golf cart.
In a form of a car... I see nothing wrong with that
yep a golf cart ,nothing more
Nothing wrong at all. It's just not a very effective car. Also not a very new idea.

Excelente...quiero uno. From Lima-Peru, José Manuel.
I need one!
renault twizy ??????
Ok, I'll say what everybody's thinking: This a Renault Twizy! "Scoot?" People have so much money to throw away... lol
Very nice vehicle.
I'd love to have one in Australia but it would need some sort window cos it rains a lot in winter.
2:24 that box tho
it was ratatouille on the way to his restaurant
bartspants how much does one cost
From the description it sounds like it's a rental only. Too bad!
Wind
did anyone see that box flying across the streetA
''Flying" ? Holy shit, I didn't know boxes can fly.
Thomas Collins by Dr coffee
Yeah I have seen the box is crossing the road
i did see that...lol
Thomas Collins wind you genius...
Nice Car LOVE IT !
Nice mode of transportation
Why do most of these videos withhold the Most important information, like how much do they cost. We generally believe that if you don't tell us then you know it costs too much!
They’re rentals. They have them in San Francisco. You can pay something like $8 an hour
Twizy in disguise xD
What disguise? the only difference i see is the badge, LOL.

"Watch out for that truck!!" "What truuuuuuuuuuuuck? Squish.
"Squish results" ?.. Same as any motorcycle or moto-scooter...or ANY bicycle for that matter. In fact, the occupant(s) of a "SCOOT" would survive most road crashes better than ANY motorcycle.
Awesome car
So the usa is finally getting the Renault Twizzy?
Nissan / Renault Twizy

What about the driving experience and the performance? Isn't that more important than spending so much time commenting on the looks you were getting in the vehicle?
Try one, they're rabid little go karts. In Europe we replaced the default battery and motor controller to give better range and higher speed after market.
Alexis Boom how's the suspension?
I really love this style electric car
Also the Scoot needs windows,Nice touch with the windshield wipers
Why on Earth are there no windows? Not only is that a safety concern but it becomes very awkward to drive during rain or simply cold weather. If you want to have your free 'wind-in-my-hair' experience there is this invention called electric windows that can be raised and lowered with a push of a button - what an exciting world do we live in /end of rant
I am pretty sure they will have some flexible plastic ones,that can be velcro stud or zip fastening.Like they have on some other similar vehicles.
All the Renault Twizzies I saw had aftermarket windows attached lol.
It's all about the $'s!
I agree!
Seems like a nice vehicle...but they definitely need to get windows.
You can get vinyl windows, we drive with that optional equipment in the winter months.
Crash survival rate is an absolute ZERO! Just thought you should know :)
Wrong. It has seatbelts and airbag. Way safer than bycicle or scooter.
wow amazing mini car. what a car it is
TechCrunch: you should do a 'what ever happened to...' series
Here's a great suggestion make them solarized as well.😊👍
Thanks for giving us basically zero information in this review
Lol!! Right?!!!
It’s not a review that’s why
I really like this vehicle🚗
I would love this ! Does it need to be registered with DMV? I live in New Jersey and they are strict here!
But, it's all open, what about rain, and snow?
That thing is a target for thieves too lol!
Is this a rebranded Renault Twizy.
Can you give distribution rights in india.
Very beautiful
Awesome ❤️
Body Small Electric , City Car : Scooth Same With Renault Twizy .
Im sorry but this is identical to a renault twizzy
+Yahya Ahmedi I hope this brings down the price because a new Twizzy cost a whopping €10.000 which is about the same price as a very reasonable second hand Audi.
Here's a clue. Renault and Nissan share the same CEO.
renault and nissan have common projects
renault owns 43.4% of Nissan
The 9 live
Once you reach 40mph turn it into R for racing.
I love this sctoty car
Interesting vehicle but a first semester film student could do a better job on the video. Details? Price, availability, range, why no windows, what is the likelihood of the rear passenger getting their neck sliced with the ill-placed seat belt....
This is a rebranded Renault Twizzy lol
it's not rebranded! renualt nissan is mergance
I want this car.
please demonstratcharging and detals on charging time
This was shown on a FB ad for $168! 🤣🤣🤣
@SansMemetics So did I just get scammed out of $179.00?
@@heidijackson4050 yes , yes you did, from what I'm reading, cancel CC , call CC company. etc
ITS A TWIZZY CLONE!
Nissan bought the Twizzy from Renault and SF got this abomination of a micro scooter. Pdx is getting a second try of electric sidewalk scooters that have already caused dozens of deaths and hundreds of injuries.SF was smart enough to ban electric sidewalk scooters.
@@pirate0jimmy As of June, 2019: At least eight people in the U.S. have died while using a rentable e-scooter since the fall of 2017, Consumer Reports has confirmed.
I want one of those things.
Wow I hope we have here in manila
what if it rains???
You get less wet than a motorcycle.
You fooked.
could you make this for wheelchairs sorta drive on drive off system.
people trying to make motorized wheelchairs as cars which they arent arent made for 20 mile trips.
They have something for wheelchairs. I forgot the name, but you could look it up. It's actually kind of cool.
Wow I want it love it
That is so cool what an invention
where i can buy this,and whats the pric
dunno if they sell all round the world but i have driven for a couple of days on holiday in madeira. they are amazingly good fun and great to drive, but are not allowed on motorways as they are classified as an electric motorcycle. they also don't have a great range before needing charging, but they do charge when running downhill which helps to extend battery life. they plug into the mains to charge. they arent expensive compared to cars and they have a small lock box behind the back seat, but little in the way of storage. not easy to get in the rear seat if you are large - not for big people. also can be a little bumpy on poor roads - you feel every jolt. but so much fun and a real head-turner, makes you smile massively when you see it out on the roads
No windows? Wouldn’t work in UK where is always rains!
O.M.G. I would love one of them. So difficult to purchase for a good price here in The U.K.
So true. I personally feel our British driving is too expensive and the laws and licensing are too draconian in comparison to Europe, America and most of rest of the world.
Ended up as the Renault Twizy!
nissan hahaha.
what about twizy from Renault ?
it looks the same to me
that's the problem, cars.
I'm sure it would be a real home run on a first date.
Need this for mobility
