It's a very attractive car, and I'd love to have one.
I can't help wondering though, what it was like to climb in and out of one. You might be able to stretch your foot across that door frame and place it onto the floor and then slide in and sit down all in one motion to get into the car. Then pick up your outside foot and lift it up, over and in. Getting out has got to be a major pain. You could crawl out and exit hands first onto the ground. Or stand up on the seat, all hunched over so you don't hit the door above your head and hop out, or try to do the entrance move in reverse. I don't see any handles to pull yourself up as you try to get out. Basically, it looks like a real challenge to enter and exit this car. It's that very high and wide threshold, and the lack of head room space above the door that would make it such a challenge.
To be fair, I've never tried it, and am only guessing based on the pictures. Maybe it's really easy.
