BYD's latest model, an ultra compact electric vehicle named Racco, debuted at the Japan Mobility Show this week, fitting into Japan's beloved kei car category. For years, domestic giants like Nissan and Honda have dominated urban streets with vehicles little bigger than a generous sneeze, accounting for one-third of all car sales. Now, the Chinese automaker wants a piece of the action by developing a model just for Japanese shoppers. The Racco is slightly over 3.3 meters long, 1.48 meters wide, and 2 meters tall, yet it has enough surprises to make you stop in the middle of your commute.
