Ladies and Gentleman, introducing Worst Car Ever
If you tend to bash over some cars, prepare yourself for Chatenet. This is something called Microcar. Basicly idea for this thing is, to make smallest car possible so teenagers can drive it. Some do it right (Aixam), some not really…
If you tend to bash over some cars, prepare yourself for Chatenet. This is something called Microcar. Basicly idea for this thing is, to make smallest car possible so teenagers can drive it. Some do it right (Aixam), some not really…
Visually, Chatenet is mix of many different cars. Overall concept reminds of Mini, but details may remind you such cars like Opel Adam or (not kidding) Ferrari FF. Meanwhile interior is mix of Opel Adam and Previous Maserati Granturismo. They really try to establish Chatenet as this luxury gadget…

So, you aproach the car, and try to open it. But when you touch the handle you realise something - its useless! You cant open Chatenet like your typical car. You have to switch really some cheap silver stick, hidden behind the handle to open the car. Its basicly like opening the outhouse.
Then you sit inside. And the first thing you’ll do, will be propably sliding of the seat, towards gearbox stick. These arent your typical car seats - they are more like really bad chairs, with no lateral, and made of some kind of not melting ice. Its rather hard to find comfortable position behind steering wheel.

Car weighs only 500 kg, even less. That means that its really easy to slam the door into the car by overestimating force needed to close the door quietly. It also means that quality of interior is ridicolous. Steering wheel is unpleasant to touch, speedmeter looks like it wants to jump of the dashboard… oh, and speaking of jumping of the dashboard, air vents are literally doing so - they are moving in the openings, and by a little forcing, you can literally pull them of!
Chatenet heart is 50 hp little engine. I believe it can drive about 60 km/h, but I think I may be too scared to test it. After all, I may slide of the driver chair and die, or car may dismember and I can die even harder.
And now, the best part - in Poland you can pay 60.000 PLN for Chatenet. Its around 20.000 $. With such an offer, I think I would rather choose Smart. That would be rather silly decision…
