I'm sure I've missed some of the attempts, but this is one I recall that came close to success (though nowhere near production). They mention some handling problems but (I think) blame them on the somewhat high CG and narrow track. http://www.gaura.com/ev/luciole/index_e.html I have to confess that I've been smitten with this little gem since I first read of it in the late 1990s. It's impressive design work for college students, quite refined. What a pity it never even got close to production.
