Hi !
Where i can buy this excellent vehicle !
Amazing !

Very cool George . Excellent design . About the only thing I could think of adding is front fenders and a roll bar . Not really a roll bar just a light bar so you would be easier to see and fenders to keep mud or dirt down to a reasonable level . As sweet as the quadracycle design is I think I will build mine as a three wheeler so it can be a street legal " motorcycle " . Just a rocking good job .

If it had a small rollbar like a roadster, lights, turn signals, small windshield and windshield wiper it would be legal in many states on road registered and insured as a street legal dune buggy or sandrail. It would be here in oregon for sure, probably nevada and others. You'd have to sell them as kit cars though, even if mostly already assembled otherwise there are many more laws you'd have to follow like fenders and DOT safety testing and etc etc.

That it one beautiful machine. Is there a web site with motor and battery details? The only issue with this design is making it street legal. Which would be easier with 3 wheels. (Makes it a motorcycle legally)

Well done George, amazing......I hope the z-cart makes it into every major city and town, even here in the UK

But George... Where does the Gas go ho ho ho ho ho??!!! (My imitation of a crying automobile company)

Nice! the Zkart is very cool. Have you considered using a system with regenerative braking capabilities? Also a belt drive would be smooth with a lot less noise and wouldn't require lubrication. I just finished an electric go kart build with an AC system, and LiFePO4 batteries, its a little monster! Did you ever take this off road? Keep doin what your doin.

brilliant george...great to see true original thinking put into action...for so many people i think a car is a status symbol first not an efficient fun form of transport..
-
What,s the plan George? Does it have a reasonable range?
