The Japanese, have the worst parking issues. This is what the IQ should have looked like.
Yamaha has a long and distinguished history of making fine car engines and outstanding motor cycles, but isn’t so well known in the automotive field even though it has produced golf carts and all-terrain quad type vehicle for years and its subsidiary Ypsilon made the OX99-11 super car. It's latest project, the Motiv.e, is a small urban runabout. It is the result of a cooperation between the company and Gordon Murray Design and uses a steel frame with bonded composite panels to add strength and a strong passenger safety cell. It has all independent suspension and an all-electric drivetrain. The show vehicle is powered by UK-sourced Zytec EV components, but word is the production car, if ever approved by Yamaha’s board, will be powered by a 1.0 liter 3-cylinder engine sending power to the rear wheels through a
6-speed dual-clutch transmission. Seemed well made, was handsome and well proportioned. We'll never see it here.
