But it can also be configured with only two rear wheel drive.

Continuous power electronically controlled to 500 W with limited temperature, safer than a bicycle or a trike.




I had it out for a couple of rides and it does very well. Double pushrod steering is very precise. Even more stable than my three wheelers ! I have to put some finishing touches on . Ride it on pathways, no problem. I wonder when Transport Canada includes these types of environmentally friendly and safer than a bicycle vehicles as part of the micro mobility?  See Frank Stronach's SARIT vehicle recently in the news.

Additional info about project :Space in
front of driver and behind the driver could be utilized to accommodate 2
children seats. The standard battery capacity is 1.8 kWh, with the  additional batteries it will be 3.3 kWh. Charging time to full charge 3
