What you see here is the R3 from T3 Motion, and it is a three-wheeled vehicle that is not a car, but a motorcycle. At least, that is its classification.
The R3 is a full electric vehicle that has a range of 80 to 100 miles after a full charge, and a top speed of 70 miles per hour. You can see a video of it after the jump, but there isn’t any sound.
It has another feature that makes it very interesting, which it has a place to mount a Galaxy Tab. In all honesty, I believe that most models of cars in this decade should have something like this. Most newer cars are already iPad compatible, and if there is a place to put a tablet PC, then the tablet can be charged as well as running apps that will help you as you drive, like a GPS.
I’m sure that we all once thought that cars of the future would look like the R3. They look like smaller version of the cars seen in Steven Spielberg’s A.I. Artificial Intelligence. Whatever the case, it doesn’t look like this would be a mode of transportation for a long distance trip.
The cost of this will be about $25,000, which is pretty expensive for a two-seater motorcycle.
Smart Car, meet your cousin!
ReplyDeleteMaybe even a little Minority Report but damn expensive.
ReplyDeleteA motorcycle like that, I wont mind driving. Glad to see stuff like this coming out.
ReplyDeleteI think the design of the car is a bit odd, but the tablet PC integration is an awesome idea.
ReplyDeleteyou have blinded me with science. following.
ReplyDeleteLooks a little weird, but cool
ReplyDeleteit actually looks kinda cool, but for some reason it looks like it could tip over lol
ReplyDeleteMy favourite 3 wheeled vehicle is still the Reliant Robin
ReplyDeleteThat looks badass, I would buy it!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Lurker - kind of on the pricey side!
ReplyDeleteFINALLY! a three wheeled car thing that wont flip over!
ReplyDeletehell yeah, it's like the reliant robin come back to life.
ReplyDeleteThat thing looks like a Plymouth Prowler's abortion. It's butt ugly!
ReplyDeleteI agree, be awesome to install any Tablet PC into a vehicle
ReplyDeleteThat's pretty amazing concept vehicle, but it's a little bit out of my price range for a golf car on steroids.
ReplyDeleteThat is such an amazing looking car. My mind is blown.....
ReplyDeleteIt looks kinda funny. But I would give it a try tho! :)
ReplyDeletewould rather drive that than a smart car anyday
ReplyDeleteHmmm.. I kinda want this.
ReplyDeleteShoot that is too expensive but im guessing that its worth it since its electrical and most electric cars run like for 20Miles on 1 buck
