14k for a “car” with a top speed of 16 mph / 25 km/h??
I guess they’ve managed to unify the drawbacks of cars and e-bikes as well.
Stuff like this always seems to be stupid expensive for some reason.
The ground clearance on that thing looks like it would ground out on the first pothole.
things with bike in the name or being compared to bikes should have teh capability of being human powered. an e-bike that has no human power is an electric scooter.
This is pedal driven as well. You can see the driver using their legs in the video, essentially this is a very luxurious e-bike. It is both street and bike lane legal in germany, which requires meeting fairly strict limits in how “motorized” it is allowed to be.
thanks. I tend to not watch videos and just look at pictures. Still to expensive though.
Anyone got a clue why there appear to be 2 steering wheels?
Probably second wheel is a brake handle?
Hard to tell from the pictures and video.Hun!?! So you can pull on it regardless of the position of the hands on the steering wheel, I guess? That’s a new one on me.
No idea but I was wondering that myself.
Toyota made an all-electric version called i-Road 10+ years ago: https://newatlas.com/toyota-i-road-full-enclosed-tilting-electric-three-wheeler/26498/
There was another one made in the 80s, I forget the name now though. It was an independent company as I recall but it was also stupid expensive.
Going back, there’s also the 1950s-era Reliant Regal (aka Mr. Bean’s blue 3-wheeler that keeps tipping over):
The Sinclair C5 is pretty much the same idea and from the 80s.
But not enclosed.
