    Wtf is the title on about. Its an art project and absurdly impractical as a car.

      Almost like all the things mentioned in the title are brought together in the art he made. I don’t remember the title saying practical car alternative.

          Part of sustainability is being content with less and this art can be seen as a literal embodiment of that ethos.

      By keeping the speeds low.

      From the article:

      “Power comes from a modest electric motor, thought to be sourced from an e scooter and powered by a 24 V battery, pushing the car to about 15 km/h (9 mph) with an approximate 25 km (15 mi) range.”

      Yeah, a motorcycle tilts as you turn so you stay stable. This looks like it would just fall over.

      Not sure, but this is an example of an incredibly narrow car that had a pretty reasonable top speed

      Some of the claims seem… un reasonable but it would have to be relatively stable to hit highway speeds

    Uplifting? Why?

    Despite being too narrow for legal road use and only offering toy car speeds

      OP just spams articles utubepublisher dot in

      It’s bot posted crap and people are blindly engaging with it. Lemmy is going to end up like Reddit, I fear.

    Electric bobsled more like. I would have the fear of god in me for any turn faster than 10km/h. Straight paths or banked turns would be fun though.

    Neat, but wrong com: This thing is not road legal or practical.

    Ride a bike, walk, or take public transport if you want sustainable transportation!

      This car would do fine in cities that primarily commute with motorcycles and bicycles.

      The fact this car would be toast in some countries speaks more to its car dependency infrastructure, creeping vehicle sizes, dangerously high front end heights, and extraneous emotional support trucks.

    Looks like the kind of thing you’d drive in a parade.

    Every once in a while the driver’s feet come out the bottom, he reaches his hands out the windows, and he picks the car up like it’s a dress being kept out of a puddle.
