A CAR WITH TWO PEDALS
So this is the Twike, or more precisely the Twike 5, which was unveiled last month at the Geneva Motor Show. This amazing three-wheeled car is an electric vehicle that is also powered by pedals. Both passengers have pedals and can recharge the vehicle and extend its range, although Twike does not yet give any information about the power of the pedals.
This combination of electric energy and pedal power results in remarkable performance. Twike 5 has a range of 500 kilometres and can reach a speed of 190 km/h!
Twike has been offering futuristic and environmentally friendly models since the 1980s. But for the first time, the car also achieves high performance, which could make it the car of the future, or at least the kind of car we will be using tomorrow.

WHERE IS IT AVAILABLE?
Twike is not a very large car franchise and therefore designs its models in small numbers. Nevertheless, the production of a series of 500 cars is planned, one of which you can reserve here.
The company has not announced an exact price. However, Twike says that the car will cost between €30,000 and €50,000. The range depends on the battery chosen for the vehicle. The larger these are, the better the performance of the vehicle.
Even if Twike 5 is not yet affordable for most of us, more and more vehicles of this type are likely to be built in the coming years. Would you be interested in such a vehicle?
