Video: Green Vehicles all-electric three-wheeled TRIAC
Too bad they folded. The vehicle actually looks cool and with today's battery tech they might have had a chance.
Should have paid more attention to the date 📅 before I wasted my time.
The Aptera.. Made with Lego blocks.
Afraid of tyre punctual,
can think of which way it will go.
Ttriac okee kapan masuk indonesia? Cepetan…!
Triac the best chois l love triac trewels
Triac okeee jangan konsep tok harus jadi dong kapan masuk indonesia?????????aku suka.
24,995 price is too high.
Green Vehicles is no more. http://www.autoblog.com/2011/07/20/say-goodbye-to-green-vehicles-and-its-three-wheeled-electric-tri/ This article indicates they went out of business.
I still think the vehicle is cool. It seems so many three wheel vehicles don't stay around for long. There is the Corbin Motors Merlin that is gone. It was really neat. There was the Eco Motors EMC3 that never seemed to make it into production. There was the Zap Alias that is gone. It was really cool looking.
SPECS..? Voltage of motor, Watts of motor, Amp hours..? # of charge cycles..? And where would someone buy replacement lithium-ion batteries when the original are spent..?
How can Lithium batteries take 16 hours to charge? Is it using a nokia charger or something? Also 25k is way too costly, I would expect this to sell for under the 15K mark at least..
Green vehicles are not green. Quit trying to feed us the crap that they are. It takes oil and natural gas to make electricity. There is more air pollution generated from the bunker oil they use in the boilers than a tank of gas causes. You can only have a green car if you are using something like the sun for electricity and that is not possible yet.
make it 4 wheels and add the price to $25,000.
Too bad we couldn't get a look at it!
I think that is really cool.
Unfortunately they went out of business. http://www.autoblog.com/2011/07/20/say-goodbye-to-green-vehicles-and-its-three-wheeled-electric-tri/
16 hrs on 110 ? absurd
NO chance that this will hold up to the Elio @ 7k$ and 84 mpg on the highway.
"has run completely out of cash and will close up "
"… within the reach of the average commuter thanks to its US$24,995 price point. " Hell, I am not in the 'range'. No wonder I have not seen them running lately.
u killed ev 1 for this shit
So is there a website people can visit to check out this vehicle? It's a really interesting piece of kit.
My average is longer than 100 miles with a lot of other people as well. Just to work and back home 130 miles. Once they crack 150 mile range they could get my interest.
@$25,000 what a rip-off
Twizyyyyyy
I'm
Out of biz. Never made it to the market because it died before
All great cars or trikes….but…the interiors are aweful.
25.000 ? Omg I buy my astra twin top in same price lol ! I think I got a better deal !
i think i would rather have the $6800 84 mpg elio car
jizzmag?
what a piece of crap. you guys should just quit now. what is this, the 1920s??
keep up with the times dammit; smera, landglider, iroad, c-1, tesseract, etc etc etc
They don't get it 25 grand is way to much.
What are those 3 pedals for ? Isn't it electric ?
$20000.00 LMAO
Look people, you all want to ramble on while wearing your ass-hats that's fine. Here's my two cents. The motor is crap because it is not asymmetrically wound, and until they put a Tesla charger/reconditioner on it to keep the batteries in perfect shape for the life of the vehicle the batteries will always fail. Buy a cheap Chinese three wheel car and rewind the motor asymmetrically then charge the batteries properly and you'll have a very high mileage long lasting EV.
Um, engineering that cost this $24,995.00 to buy this car? Give me a break. About 2 yrs ago I contacted the manufacturer in China that make this triac, the Chinese guy emailed me back that I can buy one for $12K. How did it go from $12K to $24.9K? Makup also known as greed.
The concept is sound, the company unfortunately went to shit, don't know why and really don't care. I will state my opinion as to why the damn thing was so expensive. Engineering!!! Anytime a new product hits the market the cost is astronomical until 10-20% of the population has it. Then the price will go down. If you want something like this and don't want to pay that extra arm and a leg you don't have then learn how to weld, put together an electric vehicle and then tell me how cheap it is. Decent motor by itself is $3,000-$7,000. A hybrid would allow you to extend your range considerably and the thing would get incredible gas mileage. I hope to be building small 1-passenger trikes kind of like this soon. keep your eyes open.
Wow,…too bad.
out of business
Yeah ya right if history is any predictor.
