> 8.5-foot-long (2.6 meters)
8.5’ is 102”. There aren’t any current, mainstream cars sold in the US that are shorter than 150”. A Messerschmitt KR200 was 111”, a Toyota iQ 118”. Original Minis were 120”+. The width wasn’t listed in the article that I could see.
This is about the same length as a Honda Gold Wing.
