Interesting concept and a neat way to avoid dependence on fossil fuels. It is too bad that more people haven't adopted one until you realize what they cost -- $9,000 to $16,000 - and that there is no place to store a change of clothes suggests that much more needs to be done to make this a viable means of transportation. Too dangerous for highway driving. Only good for short commutes. Impractical, but beautiful. Like most ideals. I hope velomobiles catches on though. Good way to promote health.
What a great concept! I wonder if it would be possible to build a higher model for city riding. If so, then I would assume that a delta configuration would be best suited.
Very nicely done presentation. As a WAW owner, I can appreciate the nuances mentioned in the clip. The Aurora sure looks wicked with that fighter-cockpit roof on it!
I just built a velomobile from scrap junk at my house, and it rides very smooth! I'm trying to make a body for it like the orange WAW. Awesome video!!!
Saw this on the website for the station, was linked on Bentrideronline a few weeks ago. Excellent bit, very well done. A great introduction to what a velomobile is and can do.
the prices are nuts use cheaper material for god sake!!!!
