Generally, a car is comfortable if it is at least 205 cm wide and over 170 cm high.
Proof:
Bentley State Limousine is 632 cm long, 205 cm wide, 178 cm high. It has 6,75 l V8 engine with 400 horses.
Toyota Century Royal is 616 cm long, 205 cm wide, 177 cm high. It has 5,0 l V12 engine with 280 horses.
Hongqi HQE is 640 cm long, 205 cm wide, 172 cm high. It has 6,0 l V12 engine with 400 horses.

What are the measurements of Cadillac One to compare?

Is that actual fact, or just your opinion?

$1.2 million for a no name car built by the Chinese Grin

So apart from Kim Jong-il, General Than Shwe and Colonel Gaddafi, I can't really see much of an export market to produce a return on this ~~abortion~~ investment Huh

The headlights remind me of my dear departed 1971 Volvo 164E... but I'm not sure if that's a bad thing or not. Cheesy
