Well at least itβs cheap. Electric cars are one of the few items in life, that make me happy to be approaching middle age. Hopefully I will be able to avoid the boredom of having to own one. Or at least, by the time I do I will have lost my lust for life.

I cannot see the optional rear pole and overhead contact.
"Turn the wheel and stand on the pedal"
With a 60Ah battery I bet that the heater is not very good.
Or is it a lawn mower?

220kg is quite heavy really. I thought it would lighter and that is without battery.
It just seems an interesting little unit which would fit on the boat. Will carry 200kg which is quite a handy load of coal.
25mph a bit slow I suppose and would risk excitable drivers turning up behind and whacking into it on country lanes.

I like it in ginger orange. The wipers have a nod to the ones on the morris minor ... I can imagine the "foot operated" squidgy thing on the floor... judging by the dribble of water, it probably has the same method.

Or at least, by the time I do I will have lost my lust for life. I have bought a BMW I3 Rex slow and boring it isnt! We are playing a game of seeing how far we can drive it before paying for the first charge, its at 350 miles currently and its 3/4 charged at the moment tomorrow i have to go to sheffield for a couple of hours so it will get another free charge whilst I am there

I love petrol. I love the smell, the noise, playing with the engines..Itβs bad enough having a diesel boat. Electric is a step to far for my taste. Obviously, your happy with them. Enjoy.

I cant wait to see the back of the combustion engine, noisy things.
Bring on the world of silent driving.
