Neil, did you use the dimensions on the drawing I clipped from YouTube to establish the scale for the EV1? They appear to be correct, except that track width's label is one tire too wide. Track is correctly measured from wheel center to wheel center.
The dimentions of the EV1 don't seem right to me, grantid its been 5-6 years but the EV1 I saw on campus wasn't much higher than my belt line, Im 6'4" and it couldn't have been more than 5' wide.

Maybe a height of 42" and a width of 60"

My pickup is supposed to be 66.5" wide, the EV was definetly narrower.
