Kia Ray is a compact car, currently only available in South Korea. It’s tiny yet can carry a lot so a lot of small businesses have these as a van alternative.
I hate cars. But getting rid of them has a long way ahead and I think this kind of small-but-big kind of car can appeal general public and make cities better.
To me the idea of “fuck cars” is not so much about cars as a concept, but rather the scurge of car dependency.
You don’t want a society built around cars to the point that you cannot reasonably live your life without one.
That said, even in a perfect situation with ample public transit and walkable/cyclable cities everywhere, there will still be people in situations who need a car to get around. And for those people I’d prefer it if they would be driving around in compacts like this or smaller, rather than some of the cross-overs, SUVs and pickups you see today.
Some people will always need a car, and practical compacts like this would be perfect for that role.
When I visited Europe, I didn’t mind small cars on small roads. It was cozy and felt safe even for cyclists and pedestrians. But in the US I truly hate what cars have become: tank sized SUVs and giant stroads are unholy abominations
