It’s good to know what you’re not allowed to have as it’s a good measure of just how mean-minded and duplicitous the people are who don’t allow you to have it. But the Bingo EV is a new take on the concept. You’re allowed to buy one – the cost is just $12,000. You’re just not allowed to drive one, yourself. 
Well, not here in America.
You pay the $12k to buy the Bingo and then some guy in Kenya or South Africa drives it – paying you a lease fee to use it. Ostensibly, the idea is to uplift the masses in “developing” countries, where buying a car is an extravagance, by providing them a vehicle they can use to make money doing the ride-share thing. The American who buys the Bingo gets paid while the ride-share guy in Kenya gets charged. But why can’t an American who would like to be able to buy a $12,000 Bingo – which by the way has a swappable battery that can be removed and replaced in just a a couple of minutes – buy a Bingo to drive himself?
If you answered – because the government won’t allow it – that’s a bingo.
The Bingo is very small and very light, in part because it has a very small (13 KWh) battery – which is why its battery can be easily removed and swapped out for a new (fully charged) one in far less time than it takes to gas up a typical car and far less time than it takes to recharge the battery of any EV Americans are allowed to buy. Check that, allowed to drive. It also reportedly has more than 300 miles of fully charged driving range – once again because it’s small and light and so efficient. 
But it is not compliant – which is a function of it being small and light. It is considered “unsafe” – by the federal regulatory apparat (specifically the Department of Transportation and its NHTSA adjunct) because it does not protect occupants from impact forces to the degree required of passenger vehicles per the various “standards” laid down by the federal safety apparat.
Well, motorcycles and mopeds – which we are still allowed to buy – have zero occupant protection. Of course, the standards laid down for cars do not apply to motorcycles and mopeds, but doesn’t that make the point? The federal “safety” apparat allows exceptions to its edicts. More finely, it imposes arbitrary “standards” for different kinds of vehicles. Motorcycles and mopeds are still relatively inexpensive precisely because they are allowed to be sold according to different “standards” that do not require them to pass crash tests or have air bags. 
But not everyone can ride a motorcycle or wants to – especially in the cold and wet. So people who want or have to have a car are denied inexpensive transportation.
But, wait. If “safety” is the thing, why does the government allow exceptions to that thing? Best not to give the government ideas. Of course, it is certain the government would love to apply the same “standards” to motorcycles and mopeds, but it isn’t feasible because it’s not realistically possible to make a crash-test compliant, air-bag-equipped motorcycle or moped for basically the same reason it isn’t possible to turn a a gazelle into an elephant. Motorcycles and mopeds are only allowed because they predated the rise of the Safety Cult. They would never be allowed today, if they were a new invention.
Kind of like the Bingo is not allowed. 
But why shouldn’t they be?
The whole EV push is based on the claim that it’s imperative – it is existentially important! – to replace gas and diesel-powered vehicles with “clean” battery powered vehicles, yet the ones pushed – the only ones allowed – are overweight, over-priced things models that require subsidies to sell and even that is not enough of an inducement because they are still too expensive to buy (and too impractical to use) for most people to find them a compelling alternative to a gas or diesel-powered vehicle.
This Bingo, on the other hand, is priced $10k less than the least expensive gas-engined vehicle you’re allowed to buy in this country. It doesn’t cost much more than a motorcycle, in fact. Put another way, almost anyone who could afford to buy a new full-sized motorcycle could afford a Bingo. The payments – not counting interest – would be $200 per month for five (not six or seven) years. Given that even a very fuel efficient car that gets say 40 MPG and has a 15 gallon tank currently costs about $70 to fill up once – courtesy of Trump’s stupid, evil war – and given most people have to fill up once a week, a Bingo EV would cost them less to buy than it costs to fuel a 40 MPG car.
Not counting what you paid for the car.
It does not get to 60 in 3 seconds. It hasn’t got highway legs. But the Bingo would work really well, probably, for millions of people who’d just like a cheap little runabout/commuter car to get them from A to B in urban/suburban driving scenes. Or maybe a second car that costs next to nothing to buy – or to drive. So that they could afford to drive something bigger (and faster) when the need or want arises.
But we’re not allowed the option – because compliance trumps “the environment,” which ought to tell you everything you need to know about that.
Also, weren’t we promised Tiny Cars by the president? Whatever happened to that promise? Apparently, the same thing that happened to those promises about how our energy bills would be cut in half and we’d be getting $5,000 DOGE checks and that we’d get to the bottom of that Epstein Stuff.
A $12,000 EV might not be everyone. But it’s a shame it’s not allowed for anyone.
Anyone here, that is.

Make Trump drive the damn things! Are there really people who are stupid enough to pay for cars that Kenyans will drive??!! Yeah…that’s going to work out well! The Kenyans aren’t going to be keeping those things rolling for 40 years with duct tape and Scotch tape, like they do them old Benzes.
And I can just see the ‘Murcans who buy these things, expecting to get paid and retain an asset of economic value. Meanwhile, they’ll be using those little cars for pay-toilets by the time they’re about a year old.
Speaking of the Kenyans, they are out in the streets, burning tires ‘n shit:

I’m still waiting for the gratuitous comment from our friendly US car manufacturer representative to state that this car cannot be built and even if it could, Americans wouldn’t buy it.
And they’re doing the batteries correctly:
“LFP chemistry. DC fast charge + AC charge compatible. Up to 500,000-mile battery life.”
Up to 500,000-mile battery life. No fires.
Top speed of ~55 MPH, but I’ll bet a bit of an upgrade and maybe you have a freeway capable version for ~$15k or less. Of course, the regulatory apparatus would have to drop the BS requirements to allow the driving of the thing *here*.
Has anyone yet wrote Sean Duffy to ‘splain some things?
There’s a lot of cars that use LFP.
The Chevy Bolt and Silverado EV, both Rivians, the Mach-E, the Tesla Model 3 RWD, Kia EV4 all do.
Some models have and still do use NMC, like the long range Model 3.
Most of the time the standard range is LFP and the long range version is NMC since the volume of the packs is the same so the higher energy density of NMC is the difference.
I figure you’re pointing it out because LFP is generally safer. It’s not absolutely safe, it can go into thermal runaway but it’s more stable that NMC, which is typically inside the packs you see in EV fires.
Not that this matters, plenty of people’s mind are made up that EV == fiery death trap.
Hey Kyle,
They’re *beginning* to use LFP batteries is some cars, yes. It’s still fairly uncommon. Even in this “Bingo” car, the removable battery uses the NMC chemistry, likely because it’s a bit lighter. It’s true that LFP batteries can undergo thermal runaway, but it’s much less likely. Also the cycle-life is typically much greater, the charging characteristics are less finicky, etc. There is no African blood-cobalt. It’s just the proper direction for a number of reasons.
In 2021 27% were LFP, 16% NCA and 53% NMC.
In 2025 the number is 46% LFP, 7% NCA and 37% NMC.
The market believes that NCA will be negligible in the market in the next 2 to 3 years and NMC around 15 to 20%. There’s a place for them on performance. The market usually wins and the truth leaks out despite the government and marketing departments trying to wallpaper over the issues.
NCA 18650 cells is what Tesla uses in their long range batteries, it’s the highest energy density, although lowest cycle life. It’s also got the worst thermal profile.
LFP’s low end critical temp is around 270°C, NMC around 200°C and NCA as low as 150°C. The main reason LFP is safer, though, is not temperature but that it does not release oxygen during thermal runaway.
My day job is spacecraft bus control and power. We’ve been using lithium for as long as I’ve been doing this. Most of my engineering tests are done in an explosion bunker.
I run a lead-acid bank on my home solar system.
Right on, Kyle. Well, I’m happy that things are going in the right direction. I’m off-grid as well, but I don’t worry about my LiFePO4 batteries at all. They perform extraordinarily well, and for energy storage, I won’t be going back to lead-acid, especially at today’s prices.
One battery system that I though might have some utility in home energy storage was that which was used on the Hubble, which is the nickel-hydrogen battery. Though the energy storage density is low, in a home system, that might not matter. What does is the longevity, at >20,000 cycles possible.
Of course, the high-pressure hydrogen involved might be a little unnerving, and deserve those batteries their own bunker. 😉 That said, the Hubble Space Telescope has been in operation for 36 years, and it’s batteries have endured the inhospitable realm of space without issue as far as I know.

Hi Dunning,
Well, in this case, it has been built. The Bingo is a real vehicle. It could be sold here. But they’re not allowed to sell it here. There are many such vehicles. Major manufacturers are able to build these vehicles. The issue isn’t technical or economic.
It is legal.
“It could be sold here. But they’re not allowed to sell it here.”
Unicorn farts could be bottled and sold too. If only we could find the unicorns and willing fart buyers.
“ Make Trump drive the damn things!”
Even your own readership doesn’t want to drive a tiny EV.
“If the stupid thng was able to go 70 on the highway and charge up overnight for my commute, it would be worth a look.”
If . . . Well it doesn’t so there’s another of your readers that won’t be buying a tiny urban commuter.
Much of this country is rural or suburban and has large distances to be traveled at highway speeds. That inherently limits its marketability despite what you may fantasize.
Anything can be built. Whether it’s legal for a US manufacturer to make and sell it in the US is the problem, you are correct there.
This perpetual business of “could” is so dumb. Business operates in the constraints of the real world not your imagined world of could.
If you want one so badly . . . Go build it yourself.
Hi Dunning,
I don’t want to drive one; I do want them to be available – as an alternative. Because alternatives are good. It is an expression of freedom. It would also apply pressure on the manufacturers to reduce the prices of their other offerings. Imagine strolling around a Toyota dealer’s lot with the salesman, looking at Tacomas.. and also HiLux Champs. The salesman knowing you could spend $15k rather than $32k….
The bottom line is the government disallows these little cheap vehicles from being available for sale. It’d be interesting to see whether they would sell. I expect they would because people are pressed (financially). You may not be in the position of a 20-something who cannot afford a $25k car. But there are lots of people who are – and would eagerly buy $12k cars if they could.
“ I don’t want to drive one; I do want them to be available – as an alternative”
Seriously?
So you want some OEM to pony up massive capital outlay to produce & sell these in the US but yet you yourself concede a Bingo doesn’t fit your wants and needs yet you suppose that you know what others will want and buy in volume sufficient to justify making them (again assuming they were legal).
“But there are lots of people who are – and would eagerly buy $12k cars if they could.”
There is a massive inventory of good, reliable, useable, used cars in this country at or below the $12k point and you’re supposing that they would rather spend $12k on a tiny EV that isn’t capable of highway speeds?
Per the comments below we already have GEM cars and yet they don’t sell in volume. We have UTE’s from Polaris, CanAm, & others have been widely available and are street legal in many places but those don’t sell in volume either.
Sounds Soviet to me . . This business of imagined markets, dictating what others need to available but that you won’t buy or drive yourself.
Yes, “seriously.”
No OEM would have to “pony up” anything – if the regs allowed such vehicles to be imported. Why are you (so it seems) opposed to these inexpensive little cars being available? Perhaps because it would apply pressure on the industry to lower prices, generally?
That’s not the reality. Using your example of Toyota they don’t offer the Hilux because the North American-specific Tacoma sells better. It’s less “truck-like” and that’s a big part of it. The Hilux (not the Champ) rides like a F250 did 20 years ago. It’s a commercial truck in most markets and feels like it.
Even with softer the Tacoma they offer a base SR all the way up to Trailhunter top end. The base truck has leaf springs, it’s what a fleet or commercial user would buy. Their biggest seller is the higher end TRD Offroad with rear coil suspension that is shared with the 4Runner.
What I’m saying is the U.S. market HAS spoken and it wants cushy, highly optioned vehicles. The average person isn’t buying the cheapest option as it is. They would not buy the Champ at all. Speculation that maybe they would or when the economy crashes is nonsense. If the money spigot is turned off it people will be struggling to get food, new cars will be 50th on their list of things they’re worried about.
Hi Anon,
The bottom line fact is we don’t know how well or not these little, inexpensive vehicles would sell. Because they’re not allowed to be sold. So you can’t intelligently day the Taco sells better.
“Why are you (so it seems) opposed to these inexpensive little cars being available?”
I’m not opposed to little cars being available. I’d love to see a truly free market. I’ve owned small cars all my life.
What I’m opposed to is the infatuation with imaginary markets of “could”.
Business operates in the real of what is legal to produce and what can be sold to willing buyers.
As RealAnon has pointed out, the US market is dominated by easy money and consumer demand for high trim cars that can be driven vast distances at highway speed.
Is there a small market for urban transport? Sure. But it’s miniscule as a percentage of the 10-15M annual new car market. Look at the small urban car failures. Smart cars. Fiat 500e. Corbin Sparrow. GEM. You can argue to your hearts content about why each of these failures is different than a Bingo but the market has spoken.
If someone doesn’t have $12k (or the credit available) to buy a decent used car, they aren’t a candidate to be able to go out and buy a new Bingo either.
When you look at this whole Bingo thing it’s really just another Nigerian Prince scam. The Bingo’s aren’t in production, may never be, and even if they are the whole business cases makes little sense with no ROI in the “investment” until the 3rd year and that assumes zero maintenance and that the Bingo still runs in 3 years.
You are pointing at fairy dust and implying the Bingo could be a viable car in the US.
I disagree. The Market disagrees.
You keep saying “the market disagrees” – but the fact is these little, inexpensive vehicles are not allowed to compete on the “market.” The “market” is closed off to them. So everything you say is conjecture. I’d like to see how these little, inexpensive cars would do – and then we’d know.
The 2024 Tacoma market was:
SR5 was 33% (42k sales)
TRD Offroad was 23% (29k sales)
TRD Sport was 27% (35k sales)
SR was 10% (13k sales)
The price:
SR was $31k
SR5 was $37k
TRD Sport was $40k
TRD OR was $42k
Total for all was 192k, so the other trims like Limited, Trailhunter and the various hybrids were the remaining approximately 7%.
I don’t know how many of the SR buyers were fleets vs private but even assume they were all private sales it still doesn’t seem like there’s a groundswell of buyers waiting. Maybe there’s a ton who want a new one over a used but if you have $20k what is the better deal, a new stripped truck with zero comforts and awaiting depreciation or a few year old SR5 with very nearly as much life remaining in it and the bulk of the depreciation already driven off?
BTW, that was a typo, 129,000 not 192,000 total sales.
You keep saying “the market disagrees” – but the fact is these little, inexpensive vehicles are not allowed to compete on the “market.” The “market” is closed off to them. So everything you say is conjecture. I’d like to see how these little, inexpensive cars would do – and then we’d know.
Fair points
But how many fat bastard Americans will fit into a 70’s VW bug? Or a Fiat 124? The reality is the body mass of most Muricans is now such that they don’t even fit comfortably into compact cars of the 90s. They will not fit comfortably into a Bingo.
I honesty wish we could open the market up and then we really would get to see who eats crow. Might be me. But more likely it will be you as even by your own admission, you have no real desire to buy and drive something as small and as useless a Bingo.
Hi Dunning,
I’d fit into one. Most of my friends would; definitely my friend’s son, who – being 19 – is po’ and could use an inexpensive little car. Again, I’d just like for people to have options – and for the market to decide what sells.
Hey Eric,
Thanks for continuing the “good fight”. I think some of us may take you for granted at times.
Hey! I saw a new couple of those goddamned “Flock” cameras in a nearby town. Perhaps you might investigate that whole unholy proliferation.
Thanks, BaDnOn!
We have the Flock cameras here, also. It’d be a shame if they got taken down….
There he is!
TPTB just completed a charging area right next to the freeway. An epic waste of dwindling state resources, certainly subsidized even as our state pissed away its rainy day fund. If my maff is correct, the station will “fill” 32 eVes at once. They needed a solution for all the sniveling shit bags from Maricopa county who get off on virtue signaling their Teslas around Flagstaff in the summer.
Before this EV upgrade to the gas station, many teslas would travel up the I-17 well below the posted speed limit to conserve on AC. They can finally ascend the hill at ludicrous speed. I’m voting (not sure how) against the fools progress of this AWFUL variant of communism represented by the Tesla crowd. Instead I’m voting for the Edward Abby vision of a future Arizona described in the book, Good News. If it’s not a giant meteor, we’ll take a civil war. Second choice would be famine, pandemic, fuel or water shortage, cartel invasion, great boomer die off, or, Black Swan. Whatever it takes to return us to a stable population of 2-3 million people.
“Of course, the standards laid down for cars do not apply to motorcycles and mopeds, but doesn’t that make the point?” True, but those who seek to make all vehicles unaffordable and prematurely disposable by reason of claimed “safety” additions haven’t given up on motorcycles. My understanding is that all or substantially all new motorcycles sold in the U.S. must now have ABS braking systems, which add expense and complexity and can be costly to maintain and repair.
Scooter ABS. Yep! Harley with ABS requires brake fluid flush every two years to keep the ABS module corrosion under control. Oh and to flush the module requires their computer to activate the module during the flush. They don’t charge extra for the sloppy cleanup afterwards though. Got home to find diluted fluid dripping out the weep holes in my handlebar control assemblies, couple squirts of Windex at the dealer didn’t get it anywhere near clean. The old guy that did the job without getting fluid outside the handlebar reservoir has since retired.
If the stupid thng was able to go 70 on the highway and charge up overnight for my commute, it would be worth a look.
I remember thinking many years ago that swappable batteries were the way to go. You could repurpose sections of auto parts stores and old filling stations with racks of the things. Standardized connections and chargers. What a concept.
Too bad it will never happen.
Not that I really care, I would prefer a 60 mpg gas powered car that could get me 0-60 in about 11 seconds and a top speed of 100.
Thumbs up to a 60 mpg gas powered car that could get me 0-60 in about 11 seconds and a top speed of 100. This (maybe 50 mpg) is totally possible, even with the stupid existing regs.
Absolutely, Mr. Liberty!
The Geo Metro of 30-plus years ago was capable of this. There is no good (or technical) reason why such cars can’t be made.
The VW Polo diesel I drove all around Italy turned in 80mpg average over 3 weeks in the country.
It was small and light-relatively and shockingly roomy for it’s size.
There is no reason why such a thing could not be sold to the public in the US. Other than the Church of Baal bunch in Epstein land prohibiting it.
A few years ago here at the lower case car company a request went out on our employee “portal”. They asked us all “how can we encourage EeeVee adoption?” My suggestion was to develop the vehicles in ways that. 1 would simplify and expedite a battery R&R , I think I said 10 minutes as an initial goal. 2 commonize the batteries and connections My thought was to outfit dealers and maybe open regional gm ev centers that customers could stop in at and swap out a low battery with a fully charged one in 10 minutes or less. Making long trips less of a PIA. Remove the battery “anxiety” as it were. Well that went over like a Lead Zeppelin! Yea it’s not about saving the earth at all
I think that the Elio 3-wheeler would have made a lot of sense here in the US, but it never made it into production.
Cars like the Bingo are the kinds of cars we need if we are serious (which we really aren’t) about reducing emissions of the CO2 (which really isn’t a pollutant).
First and foremost, the Bingo is SMALL. Being a small car, the Bingo takes fewer resources (iron, steel, aluminum, glass, rubber, plastics, etc.) and less energy to build, and thus creates less pollution, to build. Also as a small car, the Bingo requires fewer resources to drive (less electricity and thus less coal, oil, natural gas, uranium-238, etc.).
Being small, the Bingo is AFFORDABLE. At a price of $12,000, it’s within the reach of just about everyone—in fact, many people can cut a check for the full amount. If not, it can easily be paid off in two to three years. It’s also affordable such that it can be a serviceable second car for just schlepping around town or driving to work during the week—You can save the bigger truck, van, or SUV for road trips or trips to Costco or the lake on weekends. What’s more, the Bingo doesn’t seem to require anything more than an extra “dryer plug” in or near the garage, if that. And affordability is key to mass adoption—iconic cars like the Model T Ford, Chevy Bel Air and Impala, Mustang, and VW Beetle became iconic because they were affordable, and thus just about everyone drove them.
The Bingo is also PRACTICAL in that its batteries can be swapped out. Why more EVs don’t have batteries like this is a mystery to me.
But the Bingo is UNSAFE, supposedly. Well, it’s a dang sight safer than a motorcycle, moped, or scooter—or those e-bikes you see nowadays.
Like I said before and will say again and again: I’s not about controlling the climate or controlling emissions—it’s about controlling YOU.
This thing is exactly what an EV should be. I have little doubt a free market would have produced it years ago and had that occurred they’d be selling hundreds of thousands. They are the perfect urban commuter and town runabout, essentially a beefed golf cart.
Actually, we have it in the GEM car. Which was gaining traction in the upper Midwest, until it got bought by first Daimler/Chrysler, then by Polaris/Textron. They made handy little utility trucks which work great on school campuses and manufacturing plants as well as local neighborhoods. I believe they’re available in the 12k-20k price range. I don’t see them being promoted, though.
Never heard of a GEM but looking them up I can see your point. Maybe a little smaller than I have in mind.
A low speed EV would be terrifying if you need to use two-lane, nevermind interstate, highways even for short stints. The Bingo kind of strikes me as an electrified Kei car, which you won’t want to cross the country in but you can handle 65 MPH with 30 MPH outflows from a storm and have tires that wouldn’t self-shred due to heat build up.
There are parts of the FMVSS and DOT rules that would exist because they are common sense. Manufacturers and consumers would have to be educated and ask the right questions, you know, be responsible for yourself.
‘A 15-gallon tank currently costs about $70 to fill up – courtesy of Trump’s stupid, evil war.’ — eric
Indeed. Why does Trump’s stupid, evil war continue? Look no farther than the priorities of the traitorous Party of
LincolnIsrael.Last week a New York Times/Siena poll asked, ‘Would you like to see the next Republican candidate for president follow Trump’s lead on Israel?’ Fifty-six percent of Repugniclown respondents answered Yes. Really:
https://tinyurl.com/psxfwmct
They are okay with the Israeli prime minister barging into the White House on February 11 and ordering Trump into a disastrous war of aggression which pushed the national average gas price to $4.53 and got 13 US soldiers killed.
Outright treason — a serious crime, named in the constitution — is acceptable to a majority of Repugniclowns. What is to be done? One would not be surprised if our new communist president in 2029 signs a bill to proscribe the R-party, seize its assets, and prosecute its leaders.
I for one would volunteer to help round them up, hogtie them, and transport them to jail in muh dusty pickup bed — with Lee Greenwood blaring on the sound system, just to mock the living shit out of these America-last, Israel-worshiping lackeys.
*contemptuously kicks an R-party prisoner in the ribs with his pointy-toed cowboy boot*
Morning, Jim!
I think the support referenced among Republicans arises from two factors: First, an almost incomprehensible purblind stupidity. Second, “end times” evangelical Christianity. The latter believe it is their Biblical duty to support Israel. The former are dullards who think Iranians are “arabs” (a nice way of saying sandniggers).
Eric, it’s somewhat worse than that. When you participate in R politics, go to meetings, etc, you find that there is no principle, there is only power games, and the successful ones are every bit as ruthless and evil as the D party ones. And unfortunately it has deliberately infested the L party.
Also of note, they (R’s) aren’t even good at it, for a leftist anything goes because the end always justifies the means, while for R’s they don’t even do effective work because they won’t take the gloves off and fight for liberty.
The R party has made an enterprise out of talking a big game, keeping the R party faithful on board, no matter how disgusted they get, by rightly pointing out how very much worse the D party commies are.
Hi Ernie!
Yup. It has been a rock in my shoe for decades. I have tried for decades to get it across to (supposedly) “freedom loving” conservatives that you can’t successfully defend freedom without defending principles. But they (mostly) do not get this. It is exasperating.
Everything you wanted to know about the Republican Party:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington_Generals
That’s comedy…
Agree totally. Also the “end times” Evangelical Christian useful idiot contingent needs to understand that freedom of religion does not exclude prosecution for TREASON just because you think it justified based on your “beliefs” (more like brainwashing).
Hi Jim,
By the end of today we will know if AIPAC has completed their takeover of Clowngress if Thomas Massie loses his primary election to the nonentity representing Israhell. The fact that the race is even close is so depressing I feel like I need to start drinking now.
Now we know. They did.
No point voting in ‘elections’ when the nominees are selected in primaries warped by AIPAC’s greasy shekels — a cumulative $221 million from 2021 to early 2026, according to AP News.
A FARA office exists. But Trump neutered it. JFK tried to force AIPAC’s predecessor to register under FARA. He got assassinated.
Which country is the world’s most prolific assassin? You know who.
‘Motorcycles and mopeds are only allowed because they predated the rise of the Safety Cult.’ — eric
Exactly. Likewise, cigarettes are still sold because they predated the rise of the Safety Cult, which prohibits alleged self-harm. The FDA would never approve them today.
Naturally, it was Teddy Roosevelt — a ‘progressive,’ Trumpian figure — who gave us the FDA. He was born in New York City and, like so many pestilential personages in the overweening US fedgov, attended Hahhhhhvid.
What vehicle category is the Bingo E2?
‘The E2 is homologated as an L7e EV – a four-wheeled heavy quadricycle category recognized across Europe, Africa, and most emerging markets. Compact dimensions (3000 x 1500 x 1625 mm), 90 km/h top speed, certified for commercial ride-hail use.’ — Bingo website
Why do Europe and Africa recognize ‘four-wheeled heavy quadricycles,’ while North America does not? Only our megalomaniacal, purblind rulers — who don’t even know what ‘homologated’ means — can say. They will add, ‘It doesn’t have to make sense.’
