THE WEEK, Page 37HEALTH & SCIENCELook, Ma, No Wheels!
Catching a plane? Here's a car you can stow in the overhead rack
It is made in Japan, sputters along at 12 m.p.h. and weighs
70 lbs. The "suitcase auto," which will be on display this week
at New York's auto show, takes about one minute to assemble. But
is not intended for mass production. "We were just giving our
engineers a blank sheet of paper to see what they could come up
with," says Mazda representative Tom McDonald. Too bad: just
imagine put-putting to the airport and stowing your car in the
luggage rack.
