Eco Factor: Solar-powered personal ride-on vehicle.
Recognizing the true potential of solar energy, auto designer Siqi Liu has conceptualized a multi-purpose vehicle called the “Urban Wheels”. The all-electric vehicle can be used for gardening, shopping, camping or any other short distance traveling jobs. The vehicle is powered by electric motor, which is fueled by an onboard battery pack.
The battery pack is juiced up by two solar panels, which slides to the left and right up front to harness optimum sunlight during the day. The vehicle features a key card for activation and an adjustable handlebar that the user can regulate according to his/her height. The Urban Wheels also includes a built-in shopping rack, which can be removed when not in use.
