Renault Twizy, Picture 2, Wien (Vienna), Austria, 2013

Here's a front view. While small, some crash protection has been built into it, allowing it to exceed Austrian safety standards. It's one of the lightest cars ever put into production, though, weighing only 450Kg (992lbs.) (some sources put the weight at 474Kg., which is still lighter than an F1 car), which makes it lighter than an F1 car. In fact, it's so light that it is sometimes classified not as a car but as a "heavy quadricycle." In spite of entering the market three months into the 2012 model year, the Twizy ended up being the best-selling plug-in electric car in Europe for 2012, with a 28.5% market share of all electric vehicles in France. In the "heavy quadricycle" class, it held a near-monopolistic market share of 89% in France.
