Fifth Gear has an interesting take on how to compare the few economical superminis that they have in their market – how much can the little engines in them actually take? The superminis compared are the Hyundai Amica (known as the Atos here in Malaysia), the Proton Savvy, and some little unidentifiable car that seems more like a golf cart with a roof over it. Check out the video after the jump.
