How does one transport luggage in one of these? (Then again, airplanes will be a feasible mode of transportation for how much longer?) The small, eco-friendly cars may be useful for short trips within the city, where parking is scarce, but they don't have much trunk space. No trips to Costco. Can they carry a week's amount of groceries? They are relatively inexpensive, but if I were to buy a new car, I'd still be tempted to go with a Camry or an Accord or a Civic. (How's the VW GTI?)
