HVAD? Tænk, hvis din næste bil var en cykel! Men er du klar til at tage afsked med bilens komfort, fart og praktiske indretning? Denne velomobil er en el-drevet liggecykel, hvor designeren undersøger, hvor meget man kan få bilens egenskaber over i en cykel.

HVORDAN? Cyklen er kapslet ind i en aerodynamisk kabine, som beskytter den kørende mod vind og vejr. Den kører på et kraftfuldt el-batteri, og omsætter desuden brugerens pedalkraft til fart. Kabinen er lavet af sprøjtelakeret aluminium, og har et praktisk bagagerum i stedet for en bagagebærer.

HVORFOR? Kampen om pladsen i byrummet er enorm, og parkeringspladserne er nogle af de største syndere, når det gælder om at lægge beslag på de attraktive kvadratmeter. Med velomobiler vil dette scenarie ændre sig, og pladsen blive fri til et bedre byliv.

WHAT? Imagine that your next car was a bicycle! But are you ready to say goodbye to the comfort, speed and practical design of the car? This velomobile is an electric-powered recumbent bike, in which the designer investigates how many of the car's properties you can transfer to a bike.

HOW? The bike is encapsulated in an aerodynamic cabin that protects the rider from wind and weather. It runs on a powerful electric battery and also converts the user's pedal power to speed. The cabin is made of spray-painted aluminium, and has a practical luggage compartment instead of a luggage carrier.

WHY? The battle for space in the urban environment is fierce, and parking lots are some of the biggest culprits when it comes to seizing attractive square footage in the city. With velomobiles, this scenario will change and the space will be free for a more attractive city life.
