I think if a scooter 🛵 or motorcycle company built something similar. Using an aerodynamic weather enclosure with removable hard top & added a 250cc engine. So it could cruise along at 65mph & get 70+,mpgs and sell em new for like $6,000....That they could sell a ton.... It'd be cheap, practical, reliable, fun to drive, low maintenance, could be used year round & safer than a motorcycle. Either gas engine or 120V AC standard 🔌 plug-in electric. I wish I wasn't sick and build one myself. Then when people ask me about it. I'd tell them everything it can do & tell them I'd sell it for $6,000 & see how many people want to buy one.

They're stupid for not adding a removable hardtop & windshield & a few other mods. So it could actually be used as a daily driver = more practical = more incentive to buy one. To save money on gas and cost of a new car. If a 🛵 scooter,motorcycle or car company built something similar. They could sell a ton= reliable, low cost, fun to drive, practical commuter, 70+ mpgs.

Porsche 917: 'The worker mounts the welded tubular around the gearbox and engine. Rubber racetires and brakes are fitted. Body is painted with Gulf colors and married with the chassis. A team tries to make the wiperblade not fly off. Redman climbs in and drives the hell out of it.' See I can ease an infinite more complex vehicle into even less assembly steps including a drive test. Nevertheless, I like the result on here and much better than any E-car. 🌷:)

Velocars were popular in the late 1940s, but they died off as proper cars gained popularity. The main issue with them is that you're way down low and can't be seen by Karen in her SUV, so she drives right over you.
@another3997
@another3997 8 ай бұрын
​@@SkorpychanThis isn't a "velocar", it's a pedal powered tricycle. You're talking rubbish about being too low to be seen. Morgans aren't that low, certainly no lower than many sports cars like a typical Ferrari or a Lotus. But then potholes are low down, road markings and tree branches lying in the road are low down... yet drivers see them. As a former owner of a Caterham 7, which is very small and low down, I never had any problems being seen. As a recumbent tricycle rider, being much lower than any of these, I have far fewer problems with cars than when I ride on "normal" bikes. Quite the opposite.Drivers NOTICE it. Stop spreading rubbish based on ignorance.
