Teardrops & micro caravans in general need to be seen as serving a different purpose to larger caravans & should not be directly compared. A Teardrop should be seen as just providing somewhere to sleep which many will find far better than a small tent, particularly in bad weather.
A teardrop provides an(arguably)more convenient package of sleeping & cooking facilities compared with a tent at the expense of towing & extra ferry cost if you go abroad.
Those that find a teardrop or micro suits their requirements will not necessarily see it as 'cute', or of course, vice versa.

Looking at that picture.
Open the door in the rain to get in and the beds wet.
No heat? Condensation issues already mentioned.
Where do you put your wet items? How do you get in without soaking the bed?

I tow one with my Smart for Two Cabrio. Photo in profile.
Grampian91. You need an awning (tailor made). Porta Potty, goes in there. Plus it gives shelter when getting in and out. There is a 3 speed roof vent fan (in/out) for condensation buid up.
Never needed any heat.

I thought the Smart wasn't Type Approved for towing?
