Recumbent PEBL — eco-friendly transport for the city
The dream of many of today's drivers – the budget and economical vehicle which allows not to wait for hours in traffic jams. And very conscious motorists would not mind to have their cars be eco-friendly. The perfect solution could be a new project — a pedal-electric recumbent.
Perhaps some car owners sometimes think that it would be nice to get a vehicle in which there is something from the bike. For them is the best fit PEBL — a project from the Massachusetts start-up better.bike. Fully enclosed pedal-electric velomobile has some automotive facilities and legally classified as an electric Bicycle.
Unlike the acclaimed Elf velomobile, a three-wheeled PEBL is equipped with an electric engine power of 750 W, which can be used together or instead of a pedal of a drive. In throttle mode (in which the driver pedals) he can accelerate to a maximum speed of 32 km/h. a Two or three hour charge of its 48V / 16-Ah lithium-ion battery enough to go 40 miles, but on the pedals range of travel depends on the stamina of the person.
In front of the PEBL is only one adjustable seat for the driver, and behind him can fit one adult passenger (or two small children). Behind the rear seat is the Luggage compartment with a capacity of 170 l, which can be expanded by folding the rear seats up.
Some of the standard features of this unusual car include doors with vinyl Windows with snap fasteners, rear suspension, full lighting system, cruise control, regenerative braking (which recharges the battery on the go), 8-speed gearbox Sturmey Archer, and the combination of drum brakes at the front and mechanical disc brake rear. Additional options are highlighted in 600 W heater, roof mounted solar panels that can help recharge the battery and three extra batteries that will help to increase the range of the electric range.
Case PEBL made from hemp fabric, resin-impregnated soy-based. Besides the fact that this material is much "greener" than fiberglass, it is also surprisingly durable and lightweight. The whole car weighs 88 kg and can carry a maximum load of 159 kg.
For those who want to acquire a unusual green electric-Cycling vehicle was, will have to pay $ 5 500. Currently raising funds for mass production PEBL on the Kickstarter platform. published
P. S. And remember, only by changing their consumption — together we change the world! ©
