CHEAPLY HIPPY

It sure does - and in this case, the aim was to come up with something that captured the vision of a very affordable but decidedly wild electric car.

Dacia does concepts?

So the Hipster Concept takes the cute and cubey vibe to a whole new level.

OK... but apart from being square, what does it offer?

At just 3m long, it's small on the outside, but still manages to pack four seats. The cockpit actually feels surprisingly sizeable, which is mainly down to innovative design. The seats, for example, are styled around office chairs, so the thin back support creates extra legroom. Folding rear headrests and a square tailgate mean a washing machine will fit in the boot.

Small means efficient, right?
