The average United States consumer needs to pull their collective head out of their rear-end and wake up about the viability of small cars. Also, do not give up on the option of diesels either-a plan needs to be put forth until the fuel cell vehicle can be bought to market, less use of exotic metals than electric hybrids thus making them the most Green option of all. But for now, cars such as the Fiesta need to be be given a spot at the table in this high-stakes card game that involves everybody on the planet, now and in the future.
Just watch Top Gear and see what they think about the Fiesta, they are car fanatics that pull no punches.

I have difficulty understanding the negativism towards micro cars in the US.I believe them to be safer that motorcycles and less safe that compact cars,however nothing is ever mentioned about people who are driving ? Why blame a vehicle for accidents ? I’ll gladly at 71 take my chances in my 1950 Crosley Hotshot and try to miss the folks out there wanting to be in accidents,so try and find me !
I look forward to the day when we can get in cars under a thousand pounds,under 100 horses,under three feet tall,under eight feet long,under fifty miles per gallon,under five feet wide,under ten grand.
So,let my challenge to the makers be “GO FOR IT AND SURVIVE”
