There's no need for a crash helmet as the Twizy is officially a quadricycle or small car, but there's a belt loop for your right shoulder to augment the standard lap-and-diagonal seatbelt which passes over your left shoulder. The steering and brakes are go-kart positive, although the steering is slower-geared for easy parking in impossible spaces, while the low centre of gravity minimises body roll and the ride is pretty smooth.

Due to the high turning force, the car will be able to move even though it is in second, third or fourth gear. Therefore it is always a good idea to select a donor car with a manual transmission for an EV retrofitting project. An electric motor generally can produce high torque forces even at low revolution.
