Cross a Formula 1 car with a golf cart, and you get the Renault Twizy F1

Most automakers stay out of Formula 1 racing because of the massive costs and minor returns; the technology necessary to make a competitive F1 car has little application to the vehicles built for the road. (That's why Porsche will go back to Le Mans instead.) To further prove the point, Renault has taken its Twizy urban car — essentially an upscale electric golf cart legalized for city driving — and mated it with the hybrid KERS system used by Renault's F1 teams, along with proper racing wings, spoilers and race tires. It's so ridiculous, it's genius.
