What did i see yesterday?

[Afromonk]

Pics would’ve made this easier but alas was driving at the time.
White car, low down, ducktail back similar to a three wheeler, very skinny wheels, looked electric and that the narrow “cockpit” could only really house one person or two, maybe one behind the other.

What on earth did i see?

Any idea of size?

VW XL1, maybe? But no ducktail...

I think it was an Zimbabwean man of God on his way to Mass

If it helps others, guessing you mean boat tail ('60s Alfa Spider) not ducktail (spoiler) ('70s 911).

An average age i.e. historic, or future-modern, may guide, too, "looks electric" does not necessarily infer age.

This looks like it could be it, although the one irl looked smaller (maybe im just powerfully built) and the back looked slightly different, couldve just been extra spoiler crap.

lol, not sure where but I saw a VW XL1 looking kit car a few years ago, it was smaller and if it had two people there heads would both be leaning into the middle towards each other.

Was when I was doing research & the VW XL1 has good aero but boy does it make me happy to know the work being done to actively change bodyform at speed to gain every little bit of efficiency and allow aggressive looks & nicely stance'd rear wheels to be visible at low speed.

Only other thing I can think of is the Mercedes EQXX, but as they're still in prototype form, I'd be amazed if it was it... Maybe a development mule?

Honda Insight?
