Mystery chinese microcar spotted at Chrysler tech center
Hi guys, I decided to stop at CTC before i turned in my application over at Oakland Community College today and as i was going my usual route on Chrysler drive I happened to spot this little red car parked in the parking lot near the check in area. Unfortunately I'm not as familiar with Chinese vehicles as i am with other types of vehicles and as such I''m having trouble identifying it. Enjoy and if you guys have any idea what this little car is i'm all ears. Also i did see a 09 charger (possibly the same one that A clue saw a few weeks back) but unfortunately due to traffic i couldn't get a good shot of it

Re: Mystery chinese microcar spotted at Chrysler tech center
Thanx, The rear of this vehicle (which i couldn't shoot due to traffic) had a black trunk and 4 taillights (two small circular lamps on each side going straight up ) I might send this to BP and see if she knows what it is

Re: Mystery chinese microcar spotted at Chrysler tech center
Because it looks cheap/dumb.
![]() Did you get a new camera, GMfan1111? That first shot is really clear.

Re: Mystery chinese microcar spotted at Chrysler tech center
Nope I still have my current canon that first shot I must have held the camera pretty steady when I shot that. the other two were taken when i was still moving (Imagine how hard it is to drive and shoot a good shot at the same time)

Re: Mystery chinese microcar spotted at Chrysler tech center
also after further research i realized I got it's country of origin wrong. This EV is actually a Norwegian car though the exterior styling does look like something out of China right now

Re: Mystery chinese microcar spotted at Chrysler tech center
Think put out a press release about 2 months ago that they would working with a major manufacturer. Looks like it's Chrysler. Think was owned by Ford once apon a time. Ford paid for the initial development of this car.

Re: Mystery chinese microcar spotted at Chrysler tech center
I am all for micro cars...but this looks a little cheap and unsafe.
