The Canyon FMC is really interesting to see. It's just taking a velomobile, redesign it into a car looking/feeling vehicle, and still functions as a bicycle.
The add motor M360 would make for a good travel bike on moderate terrain. You could easily add a small bed roll just behind the handlebars. Then load the basket with your other supplies. Not so sure about the low hanging chain though. If the tension arm moves towards the front of the bike. Hitting a solid object could really mess it up.
Excellent video. Excellent products. These vehicles are starting to get my attention in a serious way. I would love to get rid of my car, the insurance, taxes, maintenance and fuel costs are enormous and to get a new one I'll need financing as well. The city I live has converted all the rail lines to walking/bike trails including the old railway bridge. No hills. I'd be crazy not to look into a vellocar, one that is totally covered that can go from trail to street with no license, insurance or registration required. There was one in the video that was really close. Need it to be winterized too. Subed and liked :)
Cool. I like the 4 wheeled Microlino, it's still expensive but it's cool. The Citroen Ami just needs to have a 300mile range and be around US$6k and it'll be a huge hit. God bless.
This is way more sustainable than heavy vehicles we have right now...especially when you can switch out the batteries on the fly. even though I don't appreciate the pedaling part aside from legal reasons...
Honestly I just don’t understand why on earth we do not have a 1 seater electric car with 4 wheels already! That Canyon is a beautiful design, just wish it was actually a car!
I live in an inner residential area of Berlin - and I'm glad that some parcel delivery services are now using electrically assisted bikes with large cargo compartments. They replace aging diesel vans that clog up the streets when parked for delivery and they avoid lots of combustion fumes. 👍
That's fantastic news! It's really encouraging to hear about the shift towards more sustainable and environmentally friendly delivery methods, especially in densely populated urban areas like Berlin. The use of electrically assisted bikes with large cargo compartments sounds like a great initiative to reduce traffic congestion and minimize air pollution. It's a win-win for both the city's atmosphere and its residents.
The 3 or 4 wheel configurations are too wide for things like parking convenience or fitting in tight spaces (Cabriovelo keeps it slim though). Maybe a two-wheel setup with outboard 'training wheels'?
Please note that the name is VeLove, not VeVolve. The VeLove has great suspension and traction. I’ve used one during a winter day with full load with no problem.
What's your favorite for the velomobile? I would like a velomobile with battery recuperation and a stable and powerful motor for driving passes in the mountains and subsequent recuperation on the descent.
If it is manufactured in india, South Asia, the costs and pricing will be reduced to 1/8-1/15th of the current cost and pricing. Profits and sales will be multifold
(1) The greenhouse cost of shipping will turn off much of the interested customer base in the USA. (2) Many of these are being made by small companies run by people tired of seeing all of the decent-paying jobs that don't require a college degree sent to Southeast Asia. (3) The customer cost difference would be far less than that due to the profit motive of the importers. It would just be another case of Asian workers being underpaid relative the target market's sale price-which in the long run is bad for Asian economies. Making these products at prices affordable for local Asian markets, targeted at those markets, and by people in those markets would be good for everybody.
a big issue would be the spatial awareness of motor vehicle drivers and riders. These things would have to have flag poles with lights/reflectors on them because some of them are very low to the ground. i imagine a lot of car drivers turning into them. cyclists would have a lot more awareness then people in these things and could therefore protect themselves from cars, so i imagine myself feeling safer on a bike.
The e bikes should not be confused with velomobiles. Real velomobiles are made of carbon to be as light as possible, with low center of gravity for good maneuvering and they use rider's peddling power only. The average speed is usually much higher than 25 km/h, so there's no use for electric motor, it is just extra dead weight. If you want/ need exercise then you should buy a velomobile like Milan, DF, Quattrovelo, Alpha 7 etc... and these bikes already exist. Many of these e bikes are interesting concepts on designer's screen, but fail to be impractical in real life. And they really depend on that motor because of heavy weight. Although there clearly seems to be need for further development, some of the cargo bikes might still be great for delivery jobs
Hello, I see many ELECTRIC vehicles that are advertised and many MOTORCYCLES, many ELECTRIC CARS, ELECTRIC BICYCLES, (BUT) I see everything but I do not see anything for sale, I do not see ANYTHING in the Dealers where are they?, where are they sold How do I get one?
I like the look of the Canyon, but it needs a steering system more in tune with a car or bike. having the handles down by your side is not a good idea for this vehicle it would lend itself more to better steering systems.
@@Electric-Rideables Well, to be honest. My velomobile is rarely locked. They are not stolen much. And sometimes for joyriding, but then they have to find out how to release the brakes. ;)
Entweder 2 Räder vorne, beim 3 Rad oder 4 Räder. Rad vorne ist eine untechnische Lösung. Beim Bremsen verlagern sich 75% des Gewichtes auf die Vorderräder, ebenso beim Kippmoment. Daher entweder 2 Räder vorne oder 4 Räder ! Die billigste 3 Radausführung benötigt gefederte Vorderräder und einen gut gefederten Sitz, wenn schon nicht das Hinterrad gefedert ist. Dabei kann man aber nicht viel einsparen. Vergesst große Elektroautos !
@@Electric-Rideables Ich hatte selbst, nach Kriegsende,, Dreirad Pedalwagen, z.T.mit kleinen Hilfsmotoren (Fuchs, Sachsonette Nabenmotor 7u. Ähnlichen) konstruiert und gebaut. Bitte nie ein Rad vorne ! Beispiel dazu war der Tempo 3 Rad Lieferwagen. Oft kippten die4se Wagen um, vor allem in Kurven und schon bei geringem Tempo, außerdem brach auch oft das Zentralrohrchassis im Biegeteil ab, weil die Belastung, durch die Gewichtsverschiebung, beim Bremsen nach vorne, zu groß wurde. Kann man nur, bei ganz langsamen, Lastdreirädern so konstruieren., wo das Hauptgewicht vor allem auf den Hinterrädern ruht.
Why do all these vehicles have such an odd design. Seriously, they look like special need transportation vehicles. Personally I'd be embarrassed to go to work with one of these. The NLM on the other hand, is the only one I'd consider buying.
The 'pure science' that goes into designing a minimalist vehicle to meet the criteria of light weight and low energy use will produce different results from those achieved by the producers of ICE vehicles based on the design concepts of last century. Also, Electric and Hybrid vehicles specifically designed to look as much like a traditional ICE vehicle as possible (in order to sell them to older/more conservative buyers who might consider anything else "odd") will rarely be as efficient as those designed according to science rather than fashion/aesthetics.
1 rear wheel in the middle takes most of the potentially useful cargo space. if you cannot put at least 2 beer crates in then most people I wont even consider it.. Even better would be an optional passenger seat / luggage space to carry your dog or your shopping..
Why are these vehicles so expensive? $10k for what is basically a $1500 bike with a plastic shell. These are half the cost of a cheap, but brand new car which is far more capable
Hi guy's . So here's a major problem and point of your european electric transportation ideas, 1 if I can't drive to a d from my destination in 1 charge its useless I can drive 40 miles just to the other side of town and 40 back . 2 the vehicle needs to go 55mph so I can use the inner city byways. And if I choose to go to a picnic or camping outing, the mountain is 60 miles away , and there is no 0ower grid there so a minimum of 130miles not 130km is needed.
Kapan city-Q,canyon,ELF velomobil,bio-hybrid kapan masuk ke indonesia, jumlah penduduk indonesia 250juta lebih adalah ladang pasar penjualan yg mengiurkan dengan syarat harga yg terjagkau murah.

I would like a fully enclosed version of #2. I like the idea of having a velomobile microcamper.
True that. A velomobile microcamper is awesome.
The amount of energy you have to expend to get these bikes is unbelievable. Seems there’s always a “but wait there’s more” moment.
Good feedback. Thanks!
The Canyon FMC is really interesting to see.
It's just taking a velomobile, redesign it into a car looking/feeling vehicle, and still functions as a bicycle.
The Canyon concept is really cool.
Podride has been "in development" for over 5 years.
Thanks for the info!
Honda had pods in 80s just a heads up no idea why it never was mass made 🤷♂️
this Begorett and Canyon concept are amazing i love the concept 😀
We agree!
The add motor M360 would make for a good travel bike on moderate terrain. You could easily add a small bed roll just behind the handlebars. Then load the basket with your other supplies.

You should have a video for what is available in North America and what is available in Europe.
Thanks for the feedback. We'll work on that.
Yeah the PEBL and the ELF are 2 of my favorites -thank you for a geat video
Of course! Which one do you like better?
@@Electric-Rideables They are both equal that's the hard part to decide
El futuro que nos espera: trabajar hasta los 75 años y estar todo el día pedaleando :-)
Haha.
Não sei quanto ao pedalar, mas a geração atual pode ir se preparando para trabalhar pelo menos até os 75 anos.
When I move to Korea, I must get one of these. I need a weather-proof canopy.
Good point. A weather-proof canopy is clutch.
This is way more sustainable than heavy vehicles we have right now...especially when you can switch out the batteries on the fly.
even though I don't appreciate the pedaling part aside from legal reasons...
Yeah, the swappable battery technology is interesting. That'll be a big one to follow with the future of electric transportation.
Honestly I just don’t understand why on earth we do not have a 1 seater electric car with 4 wheels already! That Canyon is a beautiful design, just wish it was actually a car!
Agreed. The one-seater EV is definitely something we should have.
Just cool stuff.

Jaja. Totalmente lo es.
If these are manufactured in South Asia, their costs and pricing will be 1/10-1/8th of the current actuals
True that.
No, because labour only costs so much. Excluding labour from any velomobile, you're looking at around a 4k price tag, minimum
Podbike will be interesting
Agreed.
Your way of talk sounds so strange that I.A. translator thinks that you are talking on Vietnam lingo...
