The short wheel base makes them very twitchy. Great for slow tight turns but as the speed increases they become increasingly unstable.

“The short wheelbase makes them very twitchy”.
I don’t know if you are or were a drag racer but in the 60’s & 70s they had a class called AA/FA which was a very short wheelbase car with a blown nitro burning engine. They were all over the track and great fun for the spectators. They were very wild rides.

It’s my understanding it has some advanced traction and stability management systems. This thing makes sense in Europe, no sense here at all. I don’t know why anyone would buy one, they’re not even the highest MPG.

I agree. My 2002 Jeep Wrangler is very squirrley when sliding around corners because of the short wheel base. It snaps back the other way very quickly almost causing loss of control.
