The toll is payed by purchasing a "Vignette" (a sticker that you stick on your windshield) for a year for 40 CHF.

[@jasongehringphotography2889]

Great little thing! We have one as well! One thing that didn't get mentioned in the Video is the 12V battery. Apparently, you have to drive this car at least once every few weeks. We only drive ours occasionally and when I wanted to hop in the other day the 12V system was completely dead. You can charge the battery in the trunk of the car... which helpfully does not open without power. There is also a battery disconnect switch that Microlino recommends turning off when you don't use the vehicle for more than two weeks... that's also conveniently in the most hard to reach place behind the seat. Not to hate on the car. None of this is a dealbreaker, but questionable design decisions nonetheless 😅

James May had the same issue with his Tesla 3, after Covid lockdown ... despite i being plugged in the whole time ! The propulsion battery was full, so the charge stopped, but the 12v lead acid battery drained itself and was completely flat. And a nightmare to get access to. So even big manufacturers have the same questionnable design decisions (and the M3 is not even their first model, they had years to fix it).

Worth seeing if you can use a smart trickle charger with it. You can get adapters with a couple of ring-crimps that attach permanently to the battery terminals that lead to a little plug/socket that you position somewhere easy to access so that you can just plug the charger into it without opening the bonnet or boot.

If I keep seeing you in the comments sections of all my favorite KZbin channels, I’ll be forced to call you a man of impeccable taste. Also, if you haven’t seen it, there’s a video that’s gained lots of traction from the IFJ (Institute for Justice). It’s drawing attention to a new “tactic” increasingly being used by the DEA. But get this. They’re going after ppl & searching their carry on bags after TSA has already cleared them. It involves luggage, cops, civil rights violations (but I repeat myself), and air travel: the literal intersection of DeviantOllam, DeviantOllam, & DeviantOllam! So, basically the DEA is now monitoring ticket purchases. If you buy a last minute ticket, & that ticket is inbound to any “high drug activity destination” read: any major city, odds are pretty good DEA is gonna be at your gate to meet you. To do what, you ask? Search your shit without probable cause, of course! And if you don’t consent to this flagrant violation of your 4th amendment rights? They’ll just steal your bag and tell you, you’re free to go. Don’t want to leave without your bag? Just let them search it! Otherwise, you’re going to miss your flight as you wait for them to apply for a warrant they definitely shouldn’t get, but ,depending on the judge’s politics, they definitely might get. Once that happens, anything valuable such as jewelry, cash, etc DEA finds in your carry-on is theirs now. Because, obviously your grandmother’s engagement ring is being used to facilitate trade of illegal drugs. If you weren’t a drug kingpin or at least working for one, why did you buy a last minute plane ticket? And it’s not like any serious criminal organization would’ve heard about this new tactic almost as soon as DEA began using it! Even if they had, what do you expect them to do? Just NOT buy tickets last minute? Preposterous! Criminals aren’t that organized! Criminals can’t be organized! Are you high on your own supply there, Scarface? Anyway, seemed like a topic right down your alley. Keep fighting the good fight.

Also, every 500e has the brake lights wired up backwards, so when it says the left brake lamp is out, it's actually the right one (and vice-versa)

That "boost" flame graphic was rather cute 😂

Love driving my microcar (Renault Twizy EV) had it 11 years used to drive it on the highway every day it's fun, only problem on the twizy was no heating or vents fixed with a heated seat from a smart four two, it's the city driving and parking that makes microcars such a good idea

[@user-yi7zj3lv5t]

55mph is enough for most us roads we need this here!

[@caseysmith544]

60 Kilometers Per Hour is 37 MPH

[@lanceareadbhar]

It has a top speed of 90 km/h which is just under 56 mph. It would work as a city/commuter car, but wouldn't want to see one on any 65 mph highway as that's too slow.

Oh wow! Aging Wheels goes international 😮

[@Phiyedough]

Yes, he left the US bubble!

Robert, if you are still here in Switzerland: Come visit my place and review my Renault Twizy. Fun fact, Microlino made me buy the Twizy 3 years ago. I saw the Microlino 1.0 on display in a mall and immediately fell in love. Unfortunately soon after I learned about the manufacturer screwing the Microlino crew over, basically stealing the design and the lawsuit following. So the 1.0 never made it into production and the only viable alternative was a 10 year old Renault Twizy for me.

we had that in Brazil… made in conjunction with Romi Metalurgy a Romi Iseta, there are hundreds of them very well kept by local colector

[@roflepiclol]

I saw you uploaded a video about this adorable little bubble and I squealed with joy! The noise I made was similar to the noise it makes :D

[@kjamison5951]

I’ve never been to Switzerland so I cannot speak personally on the good points, except, its flag is a big plus…

[@Schlocky]

This is my current favorite video of yours. I want one of these things despite them not going to work for my 50 mile daily interstate commute!

[@robomouse210]

You are the Bob Ross of EV/Car review channels. They are just brimming with unending fun and giggles, even when talking about bad cars. Keep it up!

[@bewilderbeestie]

I live about four kilometres from there! I had to check my photo of the Microlino down the road to make sure you weren't driving that one. And I did laugh when you accidentally got sucked into one of the many tunnels in the area. It happens a lot. Also, that's not a rocket ship on the Turbo button. It's a Bullet Bill.

[@ghomerhust]

im a huge fan of the modernized retro styling. that's a great looking little box!

[@ShoelessJP]

I have watched your videos for years, this is my favorite one you've ever done. The Microlino is an adorable little car! Also Robert I hope you enjoyed your time in Switzerland, it's an amazing country and I really hope you liked it!

[@ncc74656m]

*manly noises* Honestly Robert, you're one of my favorite hosts on KZbin, hahaha.

[@lukestoolbox]

Hey that's my home town!! :)

[@AlecBickerton]

I wonder how many of us there are.

[@Omsip123]

Lucerne here. When the vid started, I immediately thought this looks rather Swiss like, not somewhere in US

[@Samsagax]

I love the fact that it has the same exact blinker control lever as my old Peugeot 405.

[@wiseoldfool]

Bubble cars were actually a thing when I was young! I've always wanted a modern version.

[@akareject]

I needed this exact amount of joy in my life today!
