It was interesting seeing them actually make the cells.

I wish there was a car like this, but cheaper, "hotter" and with a bigger fuel tank.

That's cool. Some of those processes still seem painfully slow, especially the first wire shaping.

Very slow. Lots of hand work.

I actually like its design, even though the small range would become an issue.
