I'm glad to see Corbin back in the mix. It never really struck me that Myers was doing much with the Sparrow when they bought the production rights to it. I am glad to see that Myers hasn't totally punted their commitment to electric mobility, either, but I don't see anything tangible from them. At least Corbin have the real world experience of having developed a car from scratch and brought it to limited production. That's more than many other players can say.

It would be interesting to ask the question, since Musk has committed to making open source the design of the Tesla products, what advantage could Corbin take away from that? Obviously they could afford to install much, much greater battery capacity and with it, sufficient power to twist the motor to more highway-capable speeds and medium-long commute-friendly ranges.

And with all of that said, the Corbin Sparrow is still not sufficient for me. The new design looks like it might be a bit sleeker than the old Sparrow - it closely resembles the early Merlin sketches - but I need two seats. This is the same problem in the new Myers concept. I carpool and that isn't about to change. It's the single most effective thing I do to maximize the utility of my fuel purchase.
