Driving it

Driver position is bizarre too far to one side. Sometimes dangerous as you loose your bearings going around bends. Engine sluggish and you loose 10 mph in seconds. Needs heavy foot on accelerator all the time.

Parking is a nightmare. No visibility. Totally rely on sensors. Off centre seating position makes very difficult.
