    CityCar - awessomeness

    Just watch the video, superb for the city.

    CityCar

    Project Brief
    The CityCar is a foldable, electric, sharable, two-passenger vehicle for crowded cities. Wheel Robots—fully modular in-wheel electric motors—integrate drive motors, suspension, braking, and steering inside the hub-space of the wheel. This drive-by-wire system requires only data, power, and mechanical connection to the chassis.

        You still can, just don't expect any privacy, and probably a fine with a short jail term.
        Never has a man been heard to say on his death bed that he wishes he'd spent more time in the office.

          Now lets see one with the average 20 stone IT geek shoehorned inside it.

          Had another nasty thought.

          Can you imagine farting in one of those things???

              Now let us imagine one with the average 10 stone Apple Mac using contractor inside. It just works.

                Bit like the same that happens when you run over a pigeon. It gets up ruffles its feathers and then wanders off feeling a bit roughed up.

                Unless you get it with your tyres

                  You are a contractor :

                  Get some premises and Delegate.

                    I wonder how those exposed servos and electrics will cope with the salt and rain and mud of British roads. I'm sure it's fine whizzing around a squeaky clean lab or showroom but I bet it's a different story in a real world setting.

                    I wouldn't fancy my chances being face height to Dims Cayenne rear bumper either.
