Road testing the Cherry Coupe X-1

Summary: Three-door coupe version of the Cherry X-1. Tailgate opens wide, can be used as a sports wagon. Rear visibility is poor. Power performance is the same as the X-1 sedan. Fan is electric, noise level is significantly reduced. Handling raises the standard for FWD, even on bias-ply tires. Disc brakes are prone to fading if used heavily. The only drawback is noise and vibration from the road surface.
