Cool. If you have no place to go you can just sit in it and spin. But I could find no mention of how fast it will go. 120 km range would work for me. But if it only goes 25 mph it doesn't. And even 35 mph is too slow to really take advantage of the range. But I gather you can slip sideways into a parking space, which would be great where parking space is scarce, except that you could end up leaving the other car unable to get out.
