Most of us have had this experience. You head into the busy downtown of a crowded metropolis and there simply isn&#8217;t any parking on the street. There has to be a more efficient way to cram more cars into the same amount of space, and the Hiriko folding electric car looks like it will be able to do that.</p>
<p>The Hiriko is already a pretty <a href="http://www.gizmag.com/hiriko-folding-electric-car/21506/">small car</a>, but the rear wheel portion is actually able to &#8220;fold&#8221; into the front half of the car, effectively reducing its overall length to a mere 60 inches. The two-seater commuter vehicle also comes with &#8220;robot wheels&#8221; that allow the car to spin into place, and the windshield can open up like a door in case the sides are boxed in by other Hirikos. In effect, you can fit three of these things where you would normally fit one standard car.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re thinking that the Hiriko looks familiar, that&#8217;s because we already saw it as the <a href="http://www.mobilemag.com/2008/01/03/foldable-citycar-concept-makes-for-ultra-compact-parking/">CityCar Concept</a> four years ago. The good news is that it apparently now ready for public consumption with an estimated price of $17,430. The electric car gets about 75 miles on a single charge. Would you want one?<br />
