An economy car is an automobile that is designed for low cost operation.[1] Typical economy cars are small, light weight, and inexpensive to buy.[2] Economy car designers are forced by stringent design constraints to be inventive.[3] Many innovations in automobile design were originally developed for economy cars, such as the Ford Model T[4][5][6][7] and the Austin Mini[3][7].
