Eco Factor: Zero-emission pedal/electricity powered concept trike.
Silhouette by vehicle designer Jake Loniak is a three-wheeled vehicle designed to transport you to your office in the future. The zero-emission vehicle is powered by a hybrid engine that runs on electric motors and pedal power. The lightweight vehicle won’t need a driver’s license or any other special licensing.
The chassis and the suspension of the vehicle carries piezoelectric composite materials that harvest road vibrations to provide electricity required for lighting. With a top speed of 35mph, the vehicle uses drive-by-wire system, eliminating need for bulky linkages. Wheel hubs include brushless motors and its generous footprint ensures lane ownership and offers a comfortable ride.
