Awesome Jalopnik

Ordering a new car off of wholesaling site Alibaba.com seems like a sketchy idea, and that’s exactly why Jalopnik did it. In this series of clips, editor Jason Torchinsky unboxes it, takes us for a test drive, and explains the engineering of Chang Li’s tiny electric four-seater, which sells for about $930 ($1200 with the batteries).

(PG-13 Language) Jalopnik’s Jason Torchinsky manages to cram his butt into a little known vehicle called The Hoffman, a hideous beast of a car that’s horribly uncomfortable, drives terribly, looks worse than a Pontiac Aztek, and seems hellbent on killing its driver.
