actually it only moves to 60.

The risk of riding in one of these things is not worth it.

The MPG is not high enough, the price tag is too high, and other than low speed city driving, you are driving in what will be your coffin if you hit anything.

I think we're getting different estimates. They used to be 80 diesel, but the newer models have slightly bigger engines, taking them down to 70.

It gets four stars (out of five) in safety from ADAC, the same as the larger Kia Rio and the Mazda 6 four-door sedan, and a whole lot better than the much larger Hyundai Accent. Scores worse than the mini though, which gets the highest rating.

Don't let size fool you.
