Haima Fushida, a joint venture between FAW and Mazda, has followed up its Fstar EV released at last year's Beijing Motor Show with this, the Me EV. According to the automaker, the Me features a set of high-performance brushless motors and a choice of two lithium-ion battery packs that can power the lil' tangerine EV between 100 and 120 miles and on to a top-speed of either 50 or 75 mph, respectively. A 220-volt power supply can supposedly recharge the Me in around four hours, and if it reaches production, the urban runabout with seating for two could be credible option for navigating Shanghai's increasing congested byways.

"Fushida Me" sounds like a come-on in another language. I like it.

"Haima Fushida Me" sounds more like you're admitting to being a Fushida, and proud of it.

It means, "Perform the Heimlich maneuver on me, Fushida!"

I dont know man, it looks a lot like it. Even the windscreen. Take a look.

Different windscreen, different doors (where's the Matiz's crease?) and like many modern cab-forward hatchbacks, both have a front quarterlight window. Big deal.

I can see how it got its name. They were tossing ideas around as to what to call it, and someone asked someone else, "I don't know, what would you call it?", and the man responded, "Me?". And the first man said, "Me! That's it!"

Looks like a rough copy of the Toyota IQ to me.

As much as I find the exterior awkward, the interior is pretty cool for a car like this.
