Too light, too unstable, no flex, lacks torque. Plus, I'm only 5'9" and I can't imagine being folded into that.
On the positive side ... Pandas are known to be ... cute ... ummm ... yeah. Cute.

This vehicle weighs only 1600 lbs and has a very low center of gravity, that means it will take some angle before rolling over.
Low torque? Have you ever heard of power-to-weight ratio?
I don't beleive you are 5.9 show me a pic...

As for the little buggy thing ... all the "scientific" stuff means nothing to me. I forgot to mention the most important point. It's Fugly. I can't drive an ugly vehicle. Sorry.

Actually that is the worst kind of mud because it is made of sand and sticks as hell. My favourite wheeling surface is prolly snow, but i don't dislike sand and forests. I hate rocks, especially those middle/small ones that make the jeep shake and wear my bushings.

Maybe you could get them to import it.?
Its only 1/2 the price of what a new XJ would be today.
