Modern bicycle taxi "Eclipse"

Today, bicycle taxis or rickshaws are still one of the main means of transportation for millions of people in Asia and South America. This type of transport does not make much noise, does not pollute the environment and is much cheaper than fancy cars. Designer Kenneth Cobonpue decided to modernize the famous wagon and created a unique model Eclipse.

The basis of the modern rickshaw was an ordinary tricycle. This ensured the design stability and lightness. The Eclipse model is made of lightweight aluminum and recycled polyethylene. The seats, head restraints and steering thrusts are covered with waterproof vinyl fabric. A strong canopy protects passengers from rain and the scorching sun.

For the greatest comfort, the modern rickshaw is equipped with an iPod docking station, speakers, fan and holders for glasses. According to statistics, today in the largest cities of Asia there are from 500 rickshaws driving through the streets. Basically, carts are delivered to the destination of tourists who are not used to such means of transportation. However, every day more and more people choose rickshaws as the main mode of transport due to the ease and economy of the model.
