Cool Looking Electric Single Seater Car Inventions
Wow! I saw a really cute looking three-wheeled single-seater car today and immediately went to look for information about it online. Turns out that it’s the creatively-named, Electric One-Person Car!
It’s produced by Hammacher, and has a top speed of 70mph. The amazing thing about this car is that it can travel up to 30 miles per charge, it operates with zero emissions and uses less than half the energy of todays most efficient hybrid vehicles! How’s that for cool!
The only problem is its price. At $24,899.95, the Electric One-Person Car isn’t exactly very affordable — given the sacrifices that you have to make in terms of space. Imagine trying to put your grocery shopping in that car!
Good news though, my poking around also led me to a seemingly technologically more advanced car called the VentureOne, produced by VentureVehicles.
This car is simply fantastic! Just check out the videos on Carver on the VentureOne website. The car looks absolutely fun to drive because of its unique tilt mechanism.
And with 100mpg, what price is too high for this car? I’d imagine the cost savings that you’ll gain from petrol will make up for the car’s purchase price — and think of the fun! I can’t wait for this to appear in Singapore. With its high manoeuvrability, low maintenance costs, low emissions, I think this could potentially revolutionise the automobile industry. I know I’d want one!
