Traffic is bad.
So we fixed it.
By making the car wider.
Introducing the Taaaaaaango™
Wide. And slow, too.

Go Tango go.
Seeing Waymo using Jaguars instead of 39” wide, tandem-seated Tango EVs on Austin streets led me to create a parody of “Ghostriders in the Sky”:
We the People Pay-O
Pay the price to @Waymo

Tango EV from @CommuterCars: Best car width design for metropolitan traffic. Ever. youtu.be/-Lj_eE7wFPY?si=Y4UK…
Automated zero occupant transport in current standard car design result in outrageously wasteful empty seat hauling . Commuter Cars Tango far better human and AV driven car design for zero, single, and duo occupants.
In this time when government efficiency and congestion pricing is headline news, it’s time to acknowledge that standard cars are too wide for zero, single, and duo occupants. Time for thinmobility vehicles, lanes, and parking spaces. bbc.com/news/articles/c4gzpp…
My commute’s longer than yours:

Congratulations to those who support congestion pricing. Now it’s time to work on thinmobility skinny EVs, lanes (pathways), and parking spaces for those who support CMAQ and DOGE. nytimes.com/live/2025/01/06/…
Skinny EVs best for cost and cruising through traffic. Good start. Delete those passenger seats and reduce the width a little more. The you’ve got a commuter car any DOGE would approve.
Thin EV cars the best way to go. commutercars.com #TangoEV

When we said #Robin can go anywhere a bike can go, we weren't exaggerating!
