Most car ads show long distance, high speed or other extreme performance behaviors which are largely irrelevant to normal urban use. It is said that a 10% weight reduction can lead to a nearly matching fuel reduction. There is need for some disruptive design changes. Work (very slow) on carbon fibre is on in government R&D labs to produce low cost high performance CF.

What is the take of CEans on the potential for a radically redesigned urban personal transport using CF?
