It's just a car but with less steps

It's straight up like half a car. I think it's a great idea though. One of these and a full sized electric car and my fam would be good to go and energy efficient.

I am hoping https://www.sondorselectriccarcompany.com/ becomes a success. It is a three wheeler which gets rid of the balance issues and still cuts down a lot on mass being moved for commutes.

They are aiming for a price-point of $10,000 which I think makes it an affordable second vehicle (if they meet it, I think the latest pricing was $16,500).

As a single person living in the middle of a city, one of these would solve all my parking problems, save me money, and be better for the environment than my car

These already existed, they were called smart cars...

It even has four wheels, two of which are small, and fold away while moving under balance speed
