In 1881, the French engineer Gustav Truff invented the world's first electric car. At that time, he designed an electric bicycle as a means of transportation and named the vehicle "Gustau". During World War II, electric vehicles were used for military purposes. So far, various electric drives have been developed.
But have you ever seen an electric car without wheels? How should this electric car be ridden?
Reevo Is a wheelless electric vehicle with a unique shape developed and tested by a Malaysian company over a period of more than four years. It adopts a spoke structure similar to that of a traditional bicycle in shape, and mounts the saddle under the wheels to make it have good passability while maintaining good comfort. Looking at this innovative and avant-garde aesthetic design alone, people will have the illusion that science fiction can shine into reality.
So, apart from the styling, what's so special about this design?
First, the hub is hollow, but 27.5 inches in diameter and can support 120 kilograms. For added safety, it has a maximum speed of 40km/h, a cruising range of 60km and a charging time of 3 hours. Amazingly, the battery is mounted on a sleek frame designed as a removable battery. Doing so reduces the amount of damage to the battery and charger. In addition, it has a very large protective cover that prevents dust from entering the interior, which improves the effect of use. One of its unique safety features is that when you need to charge or lock an electric car, the battery pops up easily with a click.
When it comes to security features, I think everyone is most concerned about anti-theft. Unfortunately, such a first-sight electric car was stolen, so the designer installed a fingerprint reader, GPS and biometric sensors on the handlebar to protect the car from theft, and also installed a motion detection microchip. When someone wants to open it, it immediately warns: You've been stolen! If someone tries to move it, it will alert the owner.
At the same time, the internal GPS section can track the whereabouts of the vehicle anytime and anywhere through the mobile phone tracking system. When encountering special circumstances, it can also use wireless signals to transmit to the monitoring center for real-time monitoring and alarm. All of this makes this car look both stylish and technological. Not to mention the thief, even the owner of the bike has to go through a triple barrier to open the car. Such a high-end design is worthy of the Tesla of the bicycle. In addition, the hollow tires can also be fixed to a point in the steering wheel, and the small tote bag is mounted inside the wheel, which looks very stylish and practical.
So many cars that combine black technology must not be cheap?
It is reported that the Reevo electric vehicle will be delivered in March 2021 for the first batch of models, priced at $2,199, or about 15,000 yuan.
Of course, when it comes to unique car styling, foreign designers are always very enlightened, in addition to driverless electric vehicles, there is a bicycle shape that is more interesting: a triangular wheeled bicycle. This kind of car is also very popular in The country, but because it does not require wheels, many people do not like it. In fact, this kind of car has become popular in Europe, and there are now many cities where this model has appeared. At this time, you will think, can such a car still be ridden?
In fact, this is not an ordinary triangle design, but the structure of the Leilo triangle is used. The center of gravity of the Lelo triangle rises three times a week, each time falling three times, as it rolls at a fixed width. The car of this shape is also made with the same principle, it has two wheels and an axle. When the car is put on the body, the wheels will rotate with it, so as to achieve high-speed driving. Is this true? Just design a 3:1 gear stabilizer and you can mount Lylo's triangular wheels on the bike and ride smoothly, although it looks a little odd.
