David Hull's Phoenix is a super-efficient two-wheeler that is quite different from other [small vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/azr-quad-go). Phoenix can be driven on highways with ease for long-range, cost-effective travel.

Phoenix features a 35-horsepower engine which achieves [250 miles per gallon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/benda-p51), and features a storage drawer at the rear. The one-seater Phoenix [eco vehicle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wn7) also features an integrated touchscreen navigation system.

**Implications** - Today's average adult is quite independent, with the average age of new parents increasing. Thus, there is more room for single-seating vehicles that may not be practical, but are sleek and sexy. A futuristic, in-line two wheeler that is also eco-conscious serves as the perfect modern automobile for those that are on the go in the fast lane.
