Wouldn't call it a solution yet. Reva doesn't have an A/C, which makes it hell in city traffic with the heat and pollution. Also it has bad pick up and a piddly size which makes it no fun to drive and you get bitchslapped by everyone else on the road.

Ricks, cabs or if you can ride - a bike makes much more sense than a Reva right now.
