At that level, why have a car at all? Ignoring the highly questionable validity of the claims, you give up safety, reliability, practicality, and performance. There's a popular vehicle out there that's cheap even in expensive form, has performance on par with this thing or better, is easier to maintain, usually has the chain drive you're so enamored with, and uses no gas at all—it's called a bicycle. The only thing I can see that's better is weather protection, though I wouldn't want to drive on those tires in the rain.
