It needs to be lowered and it will be looking good!

Using the parts inside a single molecule, scientists have constructed the world's smallest car. It has a chassis, axles and a pivoting suspension. The wheels are buckyballs, spheres of pure carbon containing 60 atoms apiece.
It'd be a real squeeze to take it for a spin, however.
The whole car is no more than 4 nanometers across. That's slightly wider than a strand of DNA. A human hair is about 80,000 nanometers thick.

Re: World\'s smallest car
With a track width of 4 nanometers its appears from the engineering rendering to have a CG of approx .36975 nanometer. Perfect.

Yeah, imagine if they actually WERE able to get a hamster squeezed under the hood

So THAT'S what scientists are doing these days.

Naa how bout they drop this bad boy in there…

Although the amount of energy produced is small -- 20 microwatts -- it is quite impressive in relation to the tiny scale of the motor. The whole setup is less than 200 nanometers on a side, or hundreds of times smaller than the width of a human hair. If it could be scaled up to the size of an automobile engine, it would be 100 million times more powerful than a Toyota Camry’s 225 horsepower V6 engine, the researchers say.
