The Velomobile concept from designer Joseph Campbell, is intended for making the Velomobile “more American” and suitable for America’s current transport grid. Most of the velomobiles in action are European, small and aerodynamic; the new concept however, takes a different route in a larger, more agile velomobile suitable for mass production. The overall size is comparable to a small car at about 9′ x 4-3/4′ x 4′; this improves visibility and helps it blend in with other vehicles in the transportation grid, rather than being a thing for the bike lane. Its construction consists of a steel tubular frame with replaceable ABS panels, while the suspension uses torsion springs inside pivot points of the control arms. Employing a rear drive system, the concept does away with having pedals and a crank in favor of a cassette and belt drive pulley. Planned improvements to this model include electric assist, all wheel drive, a removable “truck bed” body, internally geared swing arm w/ reverse, head/ tail lights and a solar film wrap.

Solar cars can absorb the rise and fall of solar energy by adapting their speed.

If racing cars can drive on solar energy, then why do normal cars still need fossil fuels?
Around 30 cars race 3,000 kilometres across the Australian continent in the “World Solar Challenge”. Solar cars are electric vehicles that generate their own electricity, by means of around 6 m² of solar panels installed on their bodywork, and a series of linked up batteries that serve as a fuel tank. If we want the car to survive in the longer term, it should become slower and lighter again, trimmed to the efficiency of solar panels and batteries.

Go-One3

Go-One3 Velomobile with electric assist is made by Beyss and it is a three-wheel tricycle that is considered the HPV- human- powered vehicle.
Beyss has been manufacturing lightweight vehicles and velocipedes since 1991.
This velomobile can be expanded at 700-watt electrical assist motor, if somebody wants.
Powered primarily by granola bars and bottled water, this pedal-power personal transport vehicle is very interesting.
Go-One3 can carry some luggage on the back, if you are interested to take it for a little trip to the grocery store. It has high maneuverability, visibility and sustainability and may be purchased as a kit or fully assembled. Beyss recommends the fully assembled version, due to the complexity of the assembly process.

Versatile velomobile for two

Nice maybe..but the price!We someone could design such things with cost in mind. Build something for say..£400, then it makes if affordable to many more people an a real alternative to a car or motorbike. At the prices they are..there just fancy luxury Oil free car.

Advantages of velomobiles

Velomobiles differ totally from existing vehicles that are known from everyday traffic. That´s why they need a lot of explanation - either it is a prototype or a product from a small scale production. In a closer sense, velomobiles are fully faired recumbents. They are constructed for everyday use and offer a full rain protection.

Why should I use a velomobile and what are the advantages comparted to a bicycle or to a car?"

One main difference between a velomobile and a standard bicycle rider is, that velomobilists almost use the same clothes in summer and winter time. This is one main reason for using a velomobile . There is no need to look out the window in the morning. There is no rain wear that hinderes cycling, and one can ride dressed in a fine suit. A good velomobile offers a proper ventilation that has to be well constructed. The direct relative wind is missing, but one can adapt the flow by opening the ventilation flaps gradually. The airflow is constant, but not as strong as compared to a bicycle. Therefore, the velomobile rider adapts his speed and sweating will be reduced in a velomobile. Using a normal bike, one stays dry due to the strong airflow at higher speeds. After a stop, there is no airflow any more and sweating is getting really strong. This is really awful if one has to cycle to work regularily.

Benefits of owning a Go-one³.

1-Coolest looking velomobile in the world! Enjoy the additional safety that comes from riding an “eye popping” recumbent cycle in all traffic conditions. Safety comes first!
2-No need for registration and insurance. North America considers the velomobile a fully faired tricycle. Legal on all roads, sidewalks and bike paths. Bicycle rules apply.
3-Purchasing a go-one³ from Undercover Cycling aka Go-One LLC makes you an agent for the company! You qualify for our SPY (start pedaling yourself) Program. Earn up to $500 USD on all units you help to sell!
4-Earn income from local vendors using your Velomobile as a moving advertisement platform. 5-Take advantage of our national ad agency network!
6-Enjoy a low maintenance ride. Say goodbye to expensive vehicle tune-ups and upkeep!
7-Parking is easy, convenient and secure!
8-Pedal in a fully recumbent position. Be nice to your lower back and harness your body's more powerful muscle group!
9-Enjoy the aerodynamics of a fully enclosed fairing. Keep warm in the winter months and ride topless in the warmer seasons. Enjoy the stability of a trike design in slippery road conditions. 10-Put an end to dangerous slips and falls!
11-Take advantage of unlimited miles per gallon (water). Save the money you would spend at the local gym. Enjoy your Human Powered Vehicle (HPV)! Burn fat not fuel! Leave a "zero" carbon footprint in our environment.
12-As an option, consider installing an electric assist motor! Let the motor do some work as you pedal. This can propel you to the legal speed limit of about 20 mph (depending on where you live). Oh yes, when your battery is depleted, just switch the controls to “generative power” and replenish your battery by pedaling. We like to think of this feature as ‘fitness mode’
