I’d like to introduce you to the mö from Spanish company, Evovelo. It’s an enclosed velomobile (think pedal-car) with solar power assist and a long list of features that make it a pretty good substitute for a car in urban areas.

After an extensive period of beta-testing in 16 different countries, they’ve begun taking pre-orders from around the world. For 300€, you can reserve one of the first models (and pay the remaining cost of up to 5000€ over when production begins). Plus with open source plans being made available soon, you’ll just need a few easily accessible tools and materials to build one yourself.

Pros:
-Enclosed for better weather proofing
-Solar assist for uphill or lengthy commutes
-Sized well for visibility on the road
-Eco-friendly (zero emissions)
-Easy to maintain
-Tandem passenger seat for ease of conversation
-Legally a tricycle in most countries (no license or insurance needed)

Cons:
-10 month waiting period for delivery
-Open source plans not yet available
-A bit pricey

As a fan of innovative car alternatives, I’m already impressed but the real test will come when these become more widely available. Similar vehicles like Organic Transit's ELF have left the automotive industry relatively unscathed but you never know. This might be the one. Thoughts?

This looks cool. Amazing find.
Pros:

  • Looks awesome
  • Utilized solar power, with solar power on the roof
  • Again looks awesome :)

Cons: Can be reserved now, but long wait time for delivery. Not sure if they ship to US.

Thanks, it's basically my dream 'car' :D

Great hunt @elementm! This hunt has been verified and approved by the Steemhunt Moderation Team. Great job! Happy hunting.

Thanks @urbangladiator :)

Pros:

  • Idea
    "The mo From Evovelo", one of the car / motorcycle products with bio-hybird is quite environmentally friendly. The idea is really good for solving various air pollution problems today.

  • Design / UI / Spec
    The design is unique and interesting, but in my opinion less desirable for the High-Class.

  • Features
    Its features are many and quite interesting. The best of The Mo is Eco-Friendly.

  • Benefits
    The benefits are of course very centered on environmentally friendly and energy efficient.

  • Adoption
    On the adoption side, it seems that interest will decrease due to its classic design (only the classic who will buy and use it).

Cons:
Probably just a matter of adoption.
