the rising cost of petrol carbon emissions tax and insurance these are just some of the reasons why owning a car may not appeal to everyone likewise there are many reasons why you might not want to own a bicycle or an e-bike but what if you could combine the best qualities of bicycles and cars into one you're watching the interesting and creative designs channel here are seven incredible bicycle cars first up let's take a look at this e-bike car made by northern light motors they've spent years designing affordable and efficient electric vehicles with no compromising on style the company's ceo graham brown is a former automotive designer and digital designer who gained experience working with well-known companies like jaguar land rover bentley and dyson in the uk in 2016 graham began to think seriously about low-cost zero-emission transport and using his experience and design and production methods came up with this stylish sustainable solution lightweight composite leaf springs provide suspension that makes journeys on rough roads tolerable if not comfortable not to mention a load of fun the trike goes as fast as you can pedal but with the assistance of an electric motor you won't be puffing for air sustaining 35 miles per hour is a breeze for people with average to good fitness while higher peak speeds are possible it's safe to drive too it has large crumple zones in case of collision though its narrow end should deflect the majority of impacts anyway a safety cell around the driver is double skinned and contains a roll bar just in case the vehicle has an assisted range of up to 100 miles so you can just hit the road and keep on going all day this next vehicle looks much more futuristic and it has an extra wheel this is the frick car a four-wheeled e-bike from norwegian company podbike with easy entry and exit the velomobile has another big advantage in that it can seat an adult and child at the same time thanks to a child seat in the rear that can support up to 22 kilos a lot of thought has gone into the making of the frick car from road visibility to aerodynamic efficiency comfort and sustainability of course if you don't have children then you can use the space in the back to carry up to four large grocery bags worth of shopping instead not only will it save money on your journeys to and from the store you'll have a great time doing it the frickar's unique design results in less air drag than a racing bike meaning less effort when pedaling and more energy saved there's also a driverless mode in which the fricart can travel at six kilometers per hour about the same speed as a person walking the weather protection system makes it perfect for traveling on european roads where it is fully legal and no driver's license is required to operate it a filtered air cabin and optional heating mean that you'll be comfortable whatever the weather while the four wheels make for excellent ride comfort and increased stability other safety features include energy absorbing crush zones rollover protection and a seat belt lights and indicators make it easy to spot too which is good because you will be turning heads in this thing skidding into view next is the pod ride a four-wheel e-bike that looks like a small car complete with suspension a cushioned driver's seat steering levers with brakes windscreen wipers a weatherproof cabin with sun visor it even has headlights indicators and a front grille the pod ride's electric motor provides support for easy cycling and you can adjust the level of assist as a result you can conquer hills travel further and ride to work without arriving drenched in rain or sweat podride is the brainchild of swedish engineer michael kelman he wanted to make a vehicle that allows people to ride in comfort improve their health save money and care for the environment all at the same time while a standard bicycle ticks most of those boxes with pot ride you can cycle anywhere your way and in any weather pod ride improves upon standard cycling by added stability e-performance and smart technology plus it gives you more room for a child passenger or to store your groceries if you want you can hitch a trailer to the pod ride too for additional storage this vehicle is very versatile and can handle standard paved or dirt roads so whether you're on your way to work or off on your weekend adventures true freedom starts with a pod ride the fact that it's much smaller than a conventional car means that you can travel in areas where you normally might not be able to and you can navigate through country lanes and tight turns with ease also because of its size finding a parking spot is never difficult next in show is this pedelec made by german startup company biohybrid offering one platform and many possibilities it can adapt to many different functions whether it's carrying up to two people or hauling a decent amount of cargo stylish modern and functional it's easy to imagine seeing many of these pedal x on the streets in the next few years in addition to passenger mode it has various different cargo modes including standard cargo pickup style box cargo and a special construction mode used for pop-up coffee stalls for example seen here being tested by a delivery driver on the streets of munich the four-wheeled pedelec can carry much more than a standard bicycle pannier ever could instead the box cargo pedilec rivals the storage space you'd get with a small car or van a comfortable driver's seat full suspension and large windshield with wiper for great visibility makes for a happy delivery man with other features like an led lighting system turn signals hydraulic disc brakes a panoramic roof a 5-inch multi-touch display 4g and gps integration a usb

operated without a driver's license and can travel on the road or on bike paths in the words of gerald volnals managing director of biohybrid the time has come for a new form of sustainable mobility there's hardly a faster nimbler and more stylish way to get from a to b then onboard our bio hybrid now for something a bit different and even more quirky here's a designer from poland testing out what appears at first to be a homemade pedal cart that is until you see the body he makes for it that's right if you've ever wanted to own a mercedes sls amg or any other car for that matter but haven't been able to this is certainly one way to get around it this pedal car is all about appearance though it handles quite well too to be fair it's impressive just how much it looks like an actual car and i'm sure many people have been tricked into thinking it was before doing a double take and noticing the bicycle wheels or the guy pedaling inside complete with gull wing doors and a nice paint job this photon bicycle car certainly attracts a crowd either way you can even pop the hood and open the trunk at the rear of this thing not that you'll find an engine underneath unless you count someone's legs it's very cool regardless just imagine taking this out onto the streets among real cars and buses you're sure to get some strange looks but if traffic is moving slow enough i doubt most people will even notice what's going on especially if watching from a distance we love it and as its inventor says i think this is the most eco-friendly car ever back to a more practical yet equally impressive bike car now this is the vemmo a three-wheeled pedal vehicle with electric drive assist made in canada it comes with a built-in security and anti-theft options such as an electronically controlled parking brake an alarm and vehicle tracking so you don't have to worry about someone pinching it when it's parked a great little vehicle for commuting to work and back or doing a bit of exploring whatever the weather the vmo's electric motor assist and variable rear hub automatically changes gears for you based on the challenges of the road and your writing style not only does this make your ride easier and more relaxing it optimizes the battery's range and allows you to carry additional cargo the bike car's small stature measuring just 200 centimeters long 89 centimeters wide and 150 centimeters high plus its agility and efficiency means you can escape the traffic and take advantage of bike lanes again no driver's license is required so while everyone else is stuck in a jam and honking their horns you can breeze past them and make everyone jealous unlike with a normal bike you'll stay dry even if it rains and with zero emissions you're also doing a good thing for the environment the vimo will help keep you safe with its range of safety features including front led headlights turn signals rear led tail lights and a roll bar giving you the green light to hit the road day or night and finally feast your eyes on this vintage looking bicycle car made by kenner billed as an elegant human-powered car it's visually stunning with its black and white paint job and
