This lady who left a job in F1 to do this could use some love IMHO
4 wheels means 'It's a car in a lot of jurisdictions.
The visible height and a door is nice.

Let's say you hang a pendulum from your cat's ceiling,
but with a hinge so it can only swing left and right.
Now all you need is something to 'watch' the, side force only, pendulum and adjust the suspension accordingly.

Mod the pendulum into say a simple air valve, with pneumatic cylinders above each spring and you're done. No processing delay>
No: "Oh sh!t! Whats fault code GFY8765-653-45354/76555-FU !???" etc.

If you want to go electric, CigaR007 can likely do the 'watching' part for you, for about $ 10.

All this speed sensor, steering angle sensor, every other sensor you can possibly think of, encrypted A.I. computer powerful enough to control a space mission, etc-etc is BS thought up to make it look difficult = lucrative!

What I'm not getting:
All the "look how I made my 1 tone+ car more aero (if heavier...) so I (1 person) now get 0.00whatever more mpg! (on the highway only = 2% of the time)

Yet with a velomobile, thousands of 'MPG' at highway speeds is theoretically possible.

So its a case of:
People know that a pedestrian comes 2nd in a collision with a car.
So a small, light, low, pedestrian sized vehicle is instinctively (and correctly) perceived as less safe.
ie: 99.9999% of the population wants a vehicle that is sized/weighted to compete (or beat) the other vehicles on the road in a collision.
The ONLY way velo type micro cars will ever be accepted is if the world wakes up to discover that their car has mysteriously been replaced by a velo.
"But that's ok because so has everyone else's, so I stand as good a chance in a collision"
