ミニカー登録可能な一人乗りのジープが楽しすぎ！｜nextcruiser（ネクストクルーザー）｜ミニジープ

This is an introduction video of "nextcruiser," a mini Jeep currently being sold by Kuraraku (AC Delco Nishitama Service Center). Details of the vehicle are as follows Vehicle name: nextcruiser (first generation model) Displacement: 49 cc (regular gasoline specification) Maximum output: 3.35kw (4.55ps)/8000rpm Maximum torque: 3.1NmI (0.32kg-m)/5500rpm Tank capacity: 3.8L Fuel consumption: approx. 18 km/1 L Overall length: approx. 2,100 mm Overall width: approx. 1,100 mm Overall height: approx. 910 mm Weight: approx. 150 kg Transmission: Semi-automatic (3-step forward, 1-step backward) Front wheel brake: Double disc Rear wheel brake: Single disc Tire size: 18 x 9.50-8 Price: 398,000 yen This vehicle is a demo car for Kuraraku, and we introduced it once in 2017, and the response was quite positive despite the short video. We also borrowed it for the American Car World's "American Car Owner Eating" event, and it attracted a lot of attention at the event (laughs). As explained in the video, this vehicle can be registered as a minicar and driven on public roads. A minicar is an ordinary motor vehicle with a total displacement of 50 cc or less or a rated output of 0.6 kW or less under the Road Traffic Law, and is treated as a motorized bicycle under the Road Trucking Vehicle Law. Specifically, it is a vehicle with a prime mover having a total displacement of more than 20 cc but less than 50 cc (with an output of more than 0.25 kW but less than 0.6 kW), and is subject to size and structural regulations. But, well, this video is not a video explaining a miniature car, so please ask the store for registration-related details at the time of purchase. The advantages of a miniature car are as follows Can be driven with a standard passenger car driver's license (limited AT is acceptable). Can be driven on public roads at the speed limit of 60km/h. No need to make a two-step right turn. No need to register a helmet No vehicle inspection required. A special clause for family motorcycles can be applied for voluntary insurance. CALI insurance is the same as that for mopeds, so it is inexpensive. No need for a garage certificate. Low automobile tax ↑The low running cost is a different dimension from that of American car owners. However, although it can be registered as a mini car with a license plate number and driven on public roads, I do not recommend using it for commuting. It is not a small car because it cannot slip through, it gets wet in the rain, it sucks exhaust gas, it is scary in an emergency because it has no power, and there is a risk of tipping over. Even if you wear a helmet, it is definitely more dangerous than a motorcycle. However, it is useful to be able to ride on public roads, for example, to go to a convenience store near the campground when camping in the suburbs, to buy lunch when swimming in the ocean, or to check the surrounding points when fishing. It would also be interesting to use it for things such as savage games (laughs). It would also be great to use it as a leg at events like car shows. I borrowed this demo car from Kuraraku when I held an American car owner meeting a while back and used it to move around the venue, and it was very easy to use. Well, it's a really fun ride! There is no doubt about it. In the video, the author repeatedly says that it is "inefficient" and "needs more power," but this is just my personal impression. Everyone has their own way of feeling, so I am sure there are many people who think "this is enough". I think people who liked mini 4WD or radio-controlled cars when they were kids will definitely get into it. The real "JEEP" is now a premium SUV, but this next cruiser looks and feels like a Jeep (Ford GPW or Willys MB) that was used as a military vehicle during World War II. The size is totally different, and the "mini-jeep" is just a nickname, and has nothing to do with a jeep. But what is it? It's a car that is the opposite of the latest Jeep Unlimited, but it gives me a strong sense of "Jeep" (laughs). ◾️Photography cooperation: Kuraraku (AC Delco Nishitama Service Center) ・Website:COPY00 ・Tel: 042-568-3373 ・Address: 13-8 Higashimatsubara, Hakonegasaki, Mizuho-cho, Nishitama-gun, Tokyo ◾️Filming & Editing: Kazunao Ozeki ◾️Commentary: Takashi Tanaka ◾️American Car World Website/https://amesha-world.com Facebook/  / ameshaworld..  .
