Scootah: A Sustainable Design By Rizki Tarisa

lyn — Tue, 12 May 2009 05:50:17 +0000

Any vehicle that produces zero emission tops the list of being eco-friendly. However, Indonesian designer Rizki Tarisa does not only creates a zero emission vehicle, but a vehicle that is made of recycled materials as well. His scootah project will surely attract the interest of the environmentalists worldwide. Aside from it being a kick scooter, it is made from various recycled materials. In addition, the designer is only concern with the environment but to the users as well (which are normally students) that is why the scootah has three wheels instead of two for more stability for a more comfortable and safer ride.

Link Urban Scooter System By Anton Grimes

lyn — Fri, 17 Apr 2009 11:56:12 +0000

When we say eco-friendly vehicles, we have heard a lot about electric cars, bicycles and more. Student designer Anton Grimes joined the Australian Design Awards and presented his eco-friendly design called the Link Urban Scooter System. The Scooter itself may not be unique at all, but the concept of using it at the Central Business District of Australia made the Link Urban Scooter System Unique. This cute vehicle can be retrofitted to any existing Streetscape Smart Poles wherein users are allowed to hire one from a hub and return it to another hub where the scooter will be recharged. It will not only reduce carbon emission, but reduces the need of space eating parking lot as well. I just wish that this would be comfortable for use on any weather.

lyn — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 12:23:23 +0000

Have you heard of scooters lately? I guess not. Motorcycles had monopolized our busy streets lately especially those in rural areas. However, Auto EV Japan is planning to release the Scarpina, an electronic scooter will be offered in both two and three wheels that seems to look like the scooters released years ago on the Honda Gyro. Lithium ion batteries making it an eco-friendly vehicle power this cute vehicle. The Scarpina has the range of between 30 and 50 miles per charge depending on the model. The speed is not determined yet, but I am pretty sure that it will be fast enough to reach the rider’s destination.

Since child hood, riding in a scooter was never my sports action, but I do biking most of the time. However, most of my playmates are riding on their scooters and generally they are all battery operated. That is why; manufacturer Pumgo had created the first pedal powered scooter. Works better and safer than a scooter and runs as fast as a bicycle, the pedal powered scooter keeps the rider in shape, while helping the community in sustaining the environment zero carbon emissions. This hybrid vehicle can be useless to super highways and high-traffic roads; this is perfect and suitable in urban roads.

Peugeot’s HYmotion 3 is a three-wheeled concept vehicle that makes urban mobility possible by bridging the gap between an electric scooter and a car. This three-wheeled vehicle, wherein two of the wheels are place in front is equipped with electric motor and a diesel engine powers the one wheel on the back. The HYmotion 3 hybrid car can be driven around the city in an electric mode, and has a slightly leaned and small frame and with a maximum speed of 70mph, and is covered with glass on top. I see it useful, sleek, safe and perfect for today’s busy roads.
