Their fuel economy is around 50 mpg, if that's quite terrible then you must be on a bike!

I think when it comes to the US, it will become a niche vehicle... You will see it in the big cities, and it will also become popular among celebrities. It will probably become like a fashion statement more than anything. I wouldn't expect Mini-type sales though, but neither did Mini when they came, so you never know.
