The Bravo Motors eTrike is a new Russian pod car that could revolutionize how those from the Motherland travel. The trike is powered by electricity and can transform to suit its driver's needs. The eTrike has a stop speed of 55 mph and can fold itself up to weave in and out of heavy traffic.
Bravo Motors touts the eTrike as a vehicle fit for both sidewalks and streets. While the safety of driving an electric pod car on the sidewalk (or the street, for that matter) is debatable, the trike admittedly performs okay in the promotional video. That being said, the Bravo Motors eTrike seems to lack basic creature comforts and safety features. Still, it's a solid concept and it will be interesting to see how Bravo Motors improves upon it.
