🎥 Can we call it a velomobile?

Another great looking car-like-velomobile has seen the light of the day. This time by Polish builder Andrzej Burek. It is a pedal-powered “replica” of Mercedes Benz SLS AMG coupé with a gull-wing door and two seats. Watch the video from ROADBLOCK TV and get all the interesting information about the project itself, how long did it take to build the bike/car, about the “engine” and so on.

You may also remember two other vehicles like this which were built by the same Austrian builder Hannes Langeder. It was the Porsche GT3 RS (English subtitles available in the video) and Ferrari Enzo.

All three are amazing pieces which I think we can easily call velomobiles. Together with some electric engines, they would be nice to use in some areas as a pedal car. Yes, it is still a vehicle of a size of a standard car, but it is pedal-powered thus way more ecological than their pattern.

I have been riding recumbents since 2003 and I have done several long-distance trips on either a recumbent two-wheeler or a trike. Since 2005 I have been working in the recumbent industry as well so I could visit 120+ recumbent dealers all around the world, 50+ shows and I also met some great recumbent enthusiasts. Many of them I call friends. I started to write about recumbents in 2009 and 10 years later I founded the RECUMBENT.news mainly because I wanted to support the recumbent community and serve it with fresh stories from the world of recumbent bikes and or the world which is any way related to recumbents.
