The car that can fold itself up to fit a parking space – and it goes on sale next year (video in the article)
City dwellers know the most difficult part of urban driving isn’t the mental minicab drivers or suicidal cyclists, but finding a space to park the car once you have safely arrived at your destination.
But now a solution is at hand in the form of a revolutionary new car that can actually fold up to fit itself into the tiniest of gaps.
Researchers from MIT’s Changing Places group, working in collaboration with the Spanish Basque region’s development agency DENOKINN have developed the Hiriko Fold, a convenient, eco-friendly car for city commuting.
