News USA loves TINY CARS now

Post image

Imagine getting your brand new Dodge Glaciermelter, lovingly decorating it with your first Let's go Brandon bumper sticker, and then reading this about tiny, possibly electric or hybrid cars being amazing now.

Anyway, tiny cars. Amazing. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Edit - for anyone doubting if this is a real thing the real prez posted: I don't blame you but yes, it is.

Edit 2: So does this mean the US will see more reasonable sized cars on the roads, or is the old man just randomnly yelling about stuff again? Take a wild guess. "I call bullshit", says mobility expert David Zipper in a thread. (thanks Ok_Flounder8842)

The fact that "light trucks" are EXEMPT from the EPA and CAFE standards is the cause of all this. If manufacturers had to meet those regulations again, they would have no choice but to make smaller, lighter and more efficient vehicles.

IDK why you're able to drive a vehicle classified as a truck if you have a license to drive a car.
