Because both Cars i own were cheaper than buying one of those, atleast where iam. I quite literally can’t afford one.
I didn’t check the price before … Yeah here in germany you’d get, a pedal only version, for around 12.000 Euros ( + 250 Euros delivery )
The niceley used one without Battery is 6k.
€6,000 is, unfortunately, well into the territory of competing with used cars. It absolutely needs to be cheaper than that to gain mass adoption. I’m sure it can be since this looks like a high-end product aimed at a very specialist market just now, but right now that is a major obstacle.
someone could buy multiple used cars for that price.
I wished we would just tax the environment destroying vehicles to subsidize these velomobils. Another idea would be to include them in car-sharing offerings. I don’t need to own one, but I would love to rent it once in a while.
