    Why the hell are leaders in Europe bending over for this idiot? The US has made a disaster of it’s roads and vehicles and now you want to follow suit? Unbelievable

    So there is a loophole that make it possible to import such car and the trade deal threatens to not close it. That’s a little less sensational than what the tittle says.

    well that’s disappointing

    remember, people, if the government won’t protect you, you’ll have to do it yourself. don’t just accept unsafe vehicles right next to you.

    You think those recent Windows failures were a mistake or they did it on purpose to show power ?

      Don’t know where you live, but Im seeing more and more of them. Quite a few at the Croatian coast where I am right now. All kinds of EU licence plates.

      So many in fact, I was chilling and thinking how hard it would be to start an eu initiative to ban cars with such a bad field of view.

      Now I find out more are coming?!

        you might not be able to ban them, but you can make the owners regret using them in public

          The bigger models might also be too heavy to be driven with a regular (car) driver’s license. With a B Class the max weight is 3500 kg.

          You are right, they won’t be such a massive hit as in the US, but seeing a few of them use multiple parking spaces also won’t be a calming sight.
