This electric trike is built as the ultimate solution to getting around town while still being active and reducing your carbon footprint; details are minimal
No price, no availability, no distance metrics, no material component description.
Is this just full vaporware?
I have no idea what this solves. You get wet and have to pedal like in a bike, but it’s big and cumbersome like a car?
It’s expensive like a boat too
Perhaps it could be useful for longer journeys, or for those with a physical disability?
Either way, it’s definitely not a revolutionary concept.
You know what’s even more useful for longer journeys and those with physical disabilities?
Cars
I have no idea what a “presidential chair” is or why they’re trying to make it happen. And yes, I
readskimmed the article.I think it just means “expensive”
“Presidential chair”? Does that mean something to the average person? Weird autocorrect error?
no, it will not
Not everything has to be “the replacement for cars”. I hope diversification is the “death by a thousand cuts” to cars, where everyone has an option that best accommodates their situation.
All that is left is a roof.
and a roofie so you can forget the whole stupid experience
Too big for micromobility and too limited to replace a car? That’s just the kind of niche that nobody wants to be in in traffic.
I would argue recumbent trikes and even velomobiles still count as micromobility, but they’re really niche and unlikely to replace cars any time soon because they’re really niche.
Also, expensive which helps make them really niche.
Bonus also: Most places don’t have dedicated infrastructure for micromobility and until they do that will be a massive deterrent for many people.
Interesting description?
