The Ligier Nova is a no-longer-produced microcar, or "moped car," made by the French manufacturer Ligier between 2000 and 2011. It was known for its distinct, "organic" design and limited performance, but it was also praised as a practical city car. The Nova was offered in different trim levels, such as the entry-level 500 and the higher-end Zenith.
Ligier Nova overview and specifications
Because the Nova is a moped car, its top speed is restricted to comply with European regulations, and it is most suitable for short trips in urban environments.
