As the market for smaller, more fuel-efficient transportation grows, the autocycle is finally coming into its own instead of just remaining a novelty
The NC House Transportation Committee will consider a bill that would add “autocycle” to the state’s motor vehicle lexicon. It would provide separate regulations for a vehicle that combines automobile and motorcycle qualities. The legislation describes a three-wheeled vehicle that is not available for sale, yet.
The Corbin Sparrow is back. The fully enclosed, electric, single-seat, three wheel city commuter out of Hollister, California features bizarre golf ball dimpling all over the rear surfaces for superior aerodynamics. We spoke to Mike Corbin about his modest ambitions for this remarkable little car.
eVaro Hybrid Sports Cars Concept (PHEV) With FVT The new eVaro is a series hybrid, a fully functioning plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) with an onboard gas generator, also referred to as an extended-range electric vehicle. While the eVaro is similar to the Chevrolet Volt, the only series hybrid currently confirmed for production (2010), the eVaro (as in “arrow”) has a number of features and performance criteria that will exceed the Volt. These include better aerodynamics (much lower drag coefficient), much less weight, much higher mile per gallon (electric) and a greater range. The eVaro Hybrid Sports Cars Concept (PHEV) With FVT also compares extremely well with two vehicles from entrepreneurial companies that have received considerable media attention: the $109,000 Tesla and the Aptera. Both of these vehicles are battery electric vehicles (BEV) and, as such, are limited in their operating range because they have to be recharged. “FVT firmly believes that consumers will prefer the security of a series hybrid like the eVaro,” stated George Parker, president of FVT. eVaro Hybrid Sports Cars Concept (PHEV) With FVT The makers, Future Vehicle Technologies, say the car is more practical than the electric-only Tesla because it removes the “range anxiety” that comes with an all-electric car. The electric motor can be charged at home in three hours. They claim the car has three wheels instead of four to save fuel and make the car corner better. Here are some coolest electric vehicles, designed and produced by companies of the United States, Canada and Japan. These electric cars are on display at the 2010 Electric Vehicles Trade Show in Vancouver, Canada, on Sept. 15, 2010. eVaro Hybrid Sports Cars Concept (PHEV) With FVT The eVaro is an extended-range electric vehicle that uses a carbon-fiber, Kevlar, and aluminum subframe. Parker claims the car has a 120-130 mile range on electric power, and a total range of 460 miles. The eVaro Hybrid Sports Cars Concept (PHEV) With FVT uses a 1.1-liter, four-cylinder gasoline engine, and it has a total weight of about 2,000 pounds. The striking eVaro is surprisingly easy to enter, with the large canopy opening wide. There is room for a set of golf clubs to the left of the driver. There is an exterior trunk to the right of the driver and behind the passenger, giving the car more functionality than it might at first appear. eVaro Hybrid Sports Cars Concept (PHEV) With FVT The car is one of 43 finalists an entrant in the Automotive X-Prize, a US-based competition that will award $10 million in prizemoney to makers of a super fuel-efficient vehicle. To qualify, each entrant has to be able to achieve 100 miles to the gallon (2.3 litres per 100km), while providing acceptable performance. FVT hopes to use the publicity surrounding the contest as a springboard to a initial production run of 3000 cars. eVaro Hybrid Sports Cars Concept (PHEV) With FVT

With three square meters of solar panel on the roof, and a body so ludicrously efficient that it can squeeze up to four times as much range out of a kilowatt-hour as other EVs, the new Aptera becomes the first EV you can drive daily and never charge.
