Shockwave Defiant EV3
These guys are local to me, and frankly I hadn't ever heard of them until literally just a few minutes ago.

The crumple zone is the front wheel? Yes, a tadpole should be much more aerodynamic, although I wonder what reversing the footprint would do.
I think the leg room would push back the seats, leaving a narrower part of the triangle. The delta design should give it more trunk room. In theory, it would be more stable, although I wonder how much of a problem that would be. The Reliant Robin was infamously unstable, but "Top Gear" went out of its way to roll it while filming. That car seems slightly narrower than a normal car, far more massive than this Defiant, with far more mass to sway past the center of gravity. |
